offensive rating wins a game…There are two principal ways for evaluating the offensive abilities of individual players. One of them, floor percentage, is an estimate of the percentage of times a player contributes to his team scoring. The other, his offensive rating, is an estimate of the number of points created by that player per 100 possessions. Originally, floor percentage was developed as the principal measure of a player’s offensive ability…” Individual Winning Percentage Calculator INPUT Values include
