This is probably a long shot, but does anyone know if there is a database of BPM (or other advanced stats for international leagues? Europe and NBL

@JerryEngelmann I have developed approximate error curves for BPM, but I haven't done it directly. Relatedly, BPM is supposed to just be explanatory, not predictive, so that means player shooting luck would be outside of BPM's standard error. I'll post what I have thus far at APBRmetrics soon.

The common misconception is that estimation errors exist only for the (adj.) plus minus family of metrics The reality is that computing EE for BoxScore metrics is hard and time-consuming, and idk anyone who has even tried I hope to get there by April

@LeGoat03824702 @NBACouchside The question is how to carefully and logically include some of this non-linear impact while doing so in a robust way that can handle outliers and other contexts. BPM 2.0 was a lot better than 1.0 but there were still some holes in the robustness.

@LeGoat03824702 @NBACouchside I only log into Twitter once a year or so, please add comments at apbrmetrics... But yes, I understand. You are correct that positions are acting as a sort of capped non-linearity. At the same time, I do feel it is clear from the data that there is real nonlinearity here.

How is possible that in 2023 I can't find a comprehensive historical list of everyone who has ever won a PGA Tour event anywhere on the internet?

@NWSGray We have 13" of very heavy wet snow at 9am in Casco. Spotter CU282. Still have power here, though many trees sagging or falling.

@DSMok1 Thank you for the shoutout! I really should do a better job of getting my blog back in a better shape. Right now, users can't register, and current users have an impediment to posting. Not to mention I've been lazy in posting on Twitter instead of my blog.

The APBRMetrics message board was where I learned almost everything I know about basketball analytics. That and @tangotiger's blog.

My version of the NBA play-by-play data for the 2022-23 season, with lineups on the floor during each event + possession count + column to filter out garbage time can be found here, along with #rstats code to replicate it: github.com/ramirobentes/N…

These words of wisdom from Jonathan Tjarks last month (in an interview with @ChrisCarrino) on his perspective of life and the prospect of death were so moving and continue to stick with me. He knew what and who was important to him, and lived it with clarity and purpose

Jonathan Tjarks was a man of God. I have great respect for the way he finished the course. Truly a life worth celebrating. "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith; in the future there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness..."
Jonathan Tjarks@JonathanTjarks

Hey all, Melissa here. Jon passed away yesterday after spending the day surrounded by family and friends. He’s in heaven now, probably asking God philosophical questions and hooping it up. Service is Friday at 11am. All are welcome. Details linked here: caringbridge.org/visit/jonathan…

Added a new stat to our @The_BBall_Index applications that I've been calculating all season. It's very similar to the structure of LEBRON but instead of using box LEBRON as the prior, it uses @DSMok1 BPM from bball-ref.
