Using the same complicated method (more in depth breakdown will come with time) I explained earlier today in the women's article, I plugged the stats from this season's men's team into my player rating formula. You'll notice there were no real surprises, with the big 3 (Dennis/Ben/Woodlin) taking the top 3 spots.
Dennis is the clear number one, but Ben and Woodlin are separated by just 0.3 points. Washington, Coombs, and Edwards are also very tight, which is accurate as their impact on the game has been similar (in a good way).
1. Dennis 53.7
2. Ben 37.5
3. Woodlin 37.2
4. McKeon 36.9*
5. Washington 33.3
6. Coombs 32.5
7. Edwards 31.9
8. Foye 28.7**
9. Nemetz 25.4
10. Coffey 23.0
11. Connolly 18.7
12. Bower 18.3
13. Hafera 14.3
14. Lewis 4.9
*No longer with team (personal reasons)
**Out for season (academics)

Coffey and Connelly would be much better if they were given more minutes. Systems like this fail to take into account confidence factors and the like. That's why I've never bought into the Hollinger hype. I've always thought that guy was a penny-pushing stat guy rather than an intuitive mind in the game of basketball.
I'd rather listen to a guy like Tim Legler than read about the shit that Hollinger writes.
Call it personal preference.
Go read the women's article like I pointed out in this one.
This is meant to support what you might already know. Of course it is not perfect. Again, I said all of this in the related women's article.
