um, I don't think bennett averaged 1.25 rebounds per possession. If you can show me a link on statsheet that says he did, I may not trust statsheet. Until then, it's you.
please see my post above about #possessions reported by statsheet. earlier, i posted links where you can divide the 2 numbers yourself to get rebounds per possession
That formula is for calculating a team's total possessions over the course of a game. Where are you finding the box score statistics for only the minutes Jason Bennett was in the game?
holy crap, i've already explained this. I used the arithmetic expression SeasonTotal/SeasonPossessions to calculate per-possession statistics based on the data at statsheet. Now, to do this I interpreted the individual statistic labelled by the term "possessions" to mean the number of possessions played by a player, because that is most consistent with the definition given for the team statistic which is also called "possessions." maybe i jumped the gun with this assumption. definitions can be found here:
http://statsheet.com/basketball_stats_glossaryThe individual statistic called "possessions" might have nothing to do with the team statistic called "possessions" but it does not say so explicitly, so I assumed they are related somehow. Obviously I don't know the answer to this "possessions" mystery, or I would have said so. Obviously the Statsheet website does not explain, or I would have read it and relayed the information to you.
if you want me to type another redundant post, i'll be happy to comply. if you want to help me understand what they mean by the individual "possessions" statistic, i would be grateful for your help.
