Still, APM and plus-minus in general have a number of very effective uses. The ability to contextualize the effect a guy is having on his team over the long run, with a keen eye to certain situations or combinations that may be leaning heavily on his overall production, is a valuable on...
Today we're introducing an advanced metric that can help us out:real plus-minus (RPM). What is real plus-minus? As the name suggests, real plus-minus shares a family resemblance with the +/- stat inthe box score, which merely registers the net change in score (plus or minus) while e...
The displayed values are independent of game context, such as strength of opponent and home-court advantage, to provide comparable values; however, these factors are considered under the hood for a game optimized version of EPM (and each stat) which is used in game predictions, season simulation...
By rating each individual game as either a win or a loss on the plus/minus stat (i.e. if the player's team is ahead with the player on the floor in a game it counts as a win, if the team's behind then it's a loss), we can record a Won-Lost record for each player. ...

RAPM is used in the final step to calculate EPM values, but it is also used to create the SPM model in the first step. Adjusted plus-minus (APM) came before RAPM and is a technique to help with the contextual blindness of raw plus-minus. It was initially brought to basketball by Dan...
He scored 50 in one Philly win and had a 19-point triple-double in the other, and the Sixers finished plus-46 in Embiid's 249 minutes for the series and minus-47 in the other 44. Did Embiid repeatedly disappear in the second half, absolutely gassed from health and conditioning and l...
