NBA Playoffs: PPA Update Through Round Two

Just numbers because…no time. This update includes all playoff games through the completion of round two.

Player Production Average (PPA) is an overall rating stat I developed that credits players for things they do that help a team win and debits them for things that hurt the cause. PPA is pace neutral, accounts for defense, and includes a “degree of difficulty” factor based on the level of competition a player faces while on the floor. In PPA, 100 = average, higher is better and replacement level is 45.

Hoping to have some thoughts up about the Wizards tomorrow. Wish me luck.
