What in the world is that stat in NBA box scores? On yahoo anyway it has that. It doesn't even tell what it is and it can't be a streak of shots or rebounds being offensive/defensive becuase the numbers don't relate and those are the stats around it so I have no clue what else it could be. Nice job by them of having a stat that isn't even explained better than having a plus and minus sign by it. lol

I dunno. I thought it was assist to turnover ratio but I dont think thats it.

In my sleep today I thought I realized what it is, but lmao I thought it meant odds for winning. So that shows how stupid my sleep was since it is for players, not teams. But I don't think your guess is right becuase some yesterday said such things as -9 and +13 and weird numbers like that which wouldn't account for assis to turnover.

Umm, 1. you didn't comment. And 2. this is weird it did not have a marker as this being unread, yet I hadn't read your post yet.

+/-:

Team net points while player is in game

Saw that on yahoo's box score tonight. They also have Jason Kidd playing for Dallas and NJ tonight.

Ha. Doesn't surprise me becuase yesterday it showed the Grizzlies as only having 4 players play, I think. Or something similarly weid.

Thanks. Interesting stat. Not exactly a meaningful one I would say.... I guess it could be over an entire season maybe.

Idont think anybody else carries that but yahoo but then again, i am not big into basktball box scores. I know its a big stat in hockey. Dumb yahoo

Now I just saw what it meant and came here to update this because I forgot you told me. I sure didn't remember it being that. It's an interesting stat! When I said it's not useful I probably still misunderstood it. It's not TOO meaningful, but if someone always had a negative you would have to start wondering about him.
