What’s this? No football picture up top? What in the world is going on?
This week, I’m stepping a little bit out of my analytical bubble to bring you some fruits from my season-long labor of love.
If you’ve been paying attention this season, I’ve been keeping plus-minus data for all of the Tigers’ players and all of their lineup configurations...136 of them so far.
My hope is that people can use these numbers to get a little deeper look into which combinations have clicked for the Tigers this year and which have not.
The big criticism of plus-minus (simply, the points a team scores when a player is on the floor minus the points the team gives up) is that it’s not really indicative of that one player’s impact.
