WBFFData

Another example of threshold #selectionbias a comparison created AFTER seeing what other players accomplished. The 200 asts is arbitrarily lowered to include PB, where #CaitlinClark had ~ 330 asts in same time frame. We know Paige is a great player, stop the #datamanipulation

@wbbmayer i try to be 'a little less joking' only b/c my goal is to point out the bias/emotions/feelings that seem to cloud data/evidence/facts. Again, all good though!

@WBFFData Appreciate you too man. I'm always joking on here lol

Since +/- is the ultimate stat for the community, here are the top 6 leaders in WNBA +/- ⬇️ [minimum 3 GP, minimum 25 MPG] 1. Natasha Howard - 10.2 2. Veronica Burton - 8.8 3. Kelsey Mitchell - 8.5 4. Allisha Gray - 8.4 5. Naz Hillmon - 8.0 6. Marine Johannes - 7.7 7. Olivia Miles - 7.5 Who's the most surprising here?

@wbbmayer appreciate your posts, no shade

@wbbmayer i gotcha, literally just a comment

@eMjAy_023 @TiminTosa @statmuse NBC has deleted the post, I think we are done!

@WBFFData @TiminTosa @statmuse Who is reacting to anything lmao I didn’t post it nor do I truly care about shit like this.

More #BadData from major networks. We can appreciate what Azzi did, but the claim is false. Many players have accomplished 6 in a game, and the record is 7 as @statmuse shows 4 players have done it.

@TiminTosa @eMjAy_023 @statmuse My broader point, when fans feelings come face to face w/ facts, they react with a visceral emotion! Neither 6 in a game nor 6 in a qtr is accurate. All they had to do was say, "Azzi Fudd's 'five' 3-pointers against the Liberty were the most ever by a rookie in a 'quarter'."

@eMjAy_023 @WBFFData @statmuse It was neither implied in the post nor your response.

@eMjAy_023 @TiminTosa @statmuse Yes it is everywhere, politics, religion, and sports. I am focusing on the W...for now! Thanks for the input, take care!

@WBFFData @TiminTosa @statmuse That’s everywhere. Not just the W. And the dumb shit to the “fastest to ______” we’re getting too obsessed w stat culture. Win games and championships, that’s what ppl want

@eMjAy_023 @TiminTosa @statmuse i think the bigger issue is when data confronts feelings, then everything is filtered through the emotion, not the facts. Yes, mistakes happen, I make them too...let's try to have a higher standard. Too many sites reporting erroneous achievements

@TiminTosa @WBFFData @statmuse It is, but it’s mistakes. It happens Like the OP tried to bring up Jewell and had to delete it cuz he was wrong and then blocked me…. It happens. lol.

@eMjAy_023 @TiminTosa @statmuse op will admit when wrong and correct it, you are not blocked...let's see if national media will do the same...lloyd was not a rookie w/ record, Fudd is the rookie with a record of 5 in a qtr, not what was reported. Let's stand up for data integrity, when wrong I will correct it

@TiminTosa @eMjAy_023 @statmuse you are correct, i posted somewhere else, Fudd does have the qtr record with 5, but 6 in a game is not accurate, and if it was 'Wings' record, they didn't state it

@eMjAy_023 @WBFFData @statmuse I could grant that, but she made 5 in the 3rd, not 6. Which is probably still a record but that stat department is all over the place.

Did you say Top 20? How low are you willing to move the #selectivebias measurement threshold to find an outcome that fits a player narrative?

@statmuse if the claim is most in a qtr, then Fudd has it with 5, according to #statmuse

@eMjAy_023 @statmuse if data integrity doesn't mean anything, please continue elsewhere

@WBFFData @statmuse It was a MISTAKE. Holy shit. You guys are crucifying something that’s explained many times in the comments already.

@eMjAy_023 @statmuse then state so

@WBFFData @statmuse Lloyd wasn’t a rookie It’s a rookie and franchise record.

@eMjAy_023 @statmuse False and malicious are two very different accusations. I suggested it was false. It is a common practice for networks and other sites to report/repeat data that has not verified or validated.

@WBFFData @statmuse They meant in a quarter. It’s a mistake, it’s not malicious.

@Vadimony @SportsonPrime right, typically legit stats have notes or clear statements to ensure understanding...this one did not AND amazon sports actually ran with a fabricated fake news story to support PB narrative

@WBFFData @SportsonPrime Yeah, but they used KP in a Sparks jersey. Rookie KP was barely playing any minutes.

I initially assumed the arbitrary number was accurate for PB and KP, but evidently, it is not true, KP didn't have these numbers in her first 40 games. Why @SportsonPrime would you post a fabricated stat that was generated for PB PR?

@Vadimony @SportsonPrime it didn't say first 40 team tenure, it said "first 40 games"

@WBFFData @SportsonPrime KP first 40 with LAS: 780 - points 280 - assists I don't really know why they use these numbers, but CC-PB-KP are the few guards to really average around 20 PPG and 5 APG within first 40 games for a team tenure.... It is what it is, but most passers barely score 10 PPG.
