Those are the top five in +/- in the league... that's a good thing. Battier doesn't make the top five and apparently Durant is the anti-Battier. They don't have a player ranking for worst +/-.

worst in the league.:(
At the time of the Lakers game, Battier was a plus 10, which put him in the company of Dwight Howard and Kevin Garnett, both perennial All-Stars. For his career he’s a plus 6. “Plus 6 is enormous,” Morey says. “It’s the difference between 41 wins and 60 wins.”

Who is the anti-Battier? I'd say... Stephon Marbury.

Who is the anti-Battier? I'd say... Stephon Marbury.

...and one point of the article was to take a supposedly productive player --Durant--and show that he had a poor +/-.
What struck me was the powerful correlation projected between + and victories.

MBAs from Harvard and Stanford are providing a strategic role,not just managerial competence, in pro sports.
