Just looked up the on/off data through 10 games and some of the stuff there is really interesting.

Rozier:
Terry's numbers are unbelievable. In the playoffs we have played a total of 485 minutes and are outscoring our opponents by 2.6 points per 100 possesions.

In the 326 minutes Rozier HASNT been on the floor, we are a -8.3, in the 159, hes been on the floor we have been an astounding +24.4! dif of 32.7!!!  My two biggest criticisms of Rozier this year have been that he is a blackhole on offense and a horrible team defender. So far, our Drating with Terry is an elite 98.2 and our assist% is 7 points better with Terry on the floor than off it.

Isaiah:
Isaiah's numbers are shockingly bad. He has a -11.6 differential. With Isaiah off the court we have been an elite defense allowingjust 98 points per hundred. With him on it, 110.

Avery:
Avery also has a negative differential and our DEFENSE has been 8.4 pp100 WORSE with him on the floor.

Jae Crowder:
Hes drawn the ire of many around here(including myself, I think hes been awful) but when hes not on the floor, we get outscored by 5.5 per 100, when hes on the court, its advantage Cs by a similar margin. +11.8.

Small observations:
Horford is in the negative, -6.8 differential. Bradley and him were statistically our two best rebounders this season, we have rebounded MUCH better when they are off the floor (at our best with Zeller or Jerebko), Smart still has a positive dif. Weve been bad offensively with Jaylen on the floor, but defense has been fine. We play our fastest with Zeller on the court, our slowest with Gerald Green on it. Speaking of Green, hes been credited as a savior of sorts, but hes got a -6.5 differential.

If you look at just the Wizards series there is some pretty crazy stuff.
Rozier: +50.4
Brown: +24.3, suffocating 94.3 Drating with him on (just 44 minutes)
Smart: +16.5, defensive rating without him: 122.5
Kelly: +14.5
Crowder: +12
Horford: -13.8
Bradley: -28.8, defense differential: -20.8
Thomas: -31.1, defense without him: 89.0 rating (54 minutes)


Cant draw any conclusions from this, but I think they are interesting to look at. Washinfton's numbers are especially ****y because Washington's starters are awesome and their bench sucks. Also, with 2 blowouts you have about 12 minutes of useless basketball which can really throw off the numbers in a series that has only been 197 minutes long.

I think the bad starts are skewing the numbers, plus matchups are a factor. Everyone knows the Washington bench is garbage.

On/Off is silly since most of the starting group is on together.

You need to look at 3-man or 4-man lineups.
