Stats this method computes
| Key | Name | Definition | Unit | Transform |
|---|---|---|---|---|
vorp | Value over replacement player (VORP) | Points per 100 team possessions above a replacement-level player (BPM -2.0), scaled by the share of team minutes played and team games over 82. | replacement-level points per 100 team possessions, season | |
vorp_era | VORP, era-normalized (VORP era) | VORP over the era-normalized BPM: (BPM era + 2.0) x share of team minutes x team games over 82. The minutes and games are unchanged; only the rate is rendered in the 2023-24 spread. | replacement-level points per 100 team possessions (2023-24 scale) | era |
post_vorp | Value over replacement player, postseason (VORP post) | Points per 100 team possessions above a replacement-level player (BPM -2.0), scaled by the share of team minutes played and team games over 82. Postseason scope: vorp-v0p1, the same method over the season's postseason games only, on bpm2-v0p1's BPM (team sums, possessions, the opponent solve and league constants from those games; VORP prorates by postseason team games over 82). Play-in rows carry none; no era variant. | replacement-level points per 100 team possessions, season |
