The Top 125 players in the NBA, grouped into five tiers by SethPartnow. Who made the cut? Our first look at Tier 5:
Player Tiers for detailed explanations for how we do this. But to briefly sum things up: the margins at the top are very small – as we saw in the most recent NBA Finals – and differentiating the best, from the stars to the simply very good, is imperative in evaluating each team.
Around five players per season perform at a “supermax” level, worth 35 percent of a team’s salary cap or more, as well as significantly add to a team’s championship equity.A further 20-25 players perform at a level justifying a “rookie max” at 25 percent of the cap or higher.Another 50 to 75 provide some additional championship equity on top of their “everyday” production, but only a minor amount.
To slot players into those tiers, I start, but don’t end with metrics, as I’m trying to identify their impact towards winning for a championship. Some of the major factors considered: I consider the whole of a player’s recent career, not just last season. This serves to eliminate, or at least reduce, wild year-to-year swings in player tiering due to factors often outside of their control — changes in role/situation; a period playing through a nagging injury or simply production altered by a lengthy slump or hot streak.
