Spurs Playoff Metrics to Date: All Hail Manu


Y'all will love this. Manu is rated fourth on the roster behind Leonard, Green, and Parker. I'm also pleased that my man-crush on Kawhi is hugely justified by this particular basket of statistics, which is largely based on +/-.

Of course, there's lies, damn lies, and statistics. Over here we have some older-school ratings that admittedly conform more closely with at least my eye test. These rank Parker as the top Spur, and No 7 overall among playoff performers to date. Still, Manu rates fifth on roster behind Tony, Duncan, Leonard, and Green.

The point being, if the second unit that you lead blows up the opposing second unit on a regular basis, then Pop, you, me, and the rest of Spurs Nation just need to accept all of the damn turnovers and let Manu be Manu. ;-)
