Plus/Minus (in case anyone is interested)

Just something I noticed that doesn't make sense...


It says Junior Robinson played 39 Min and had +/- of +13. They lost by 4. We couldn't have gone on a 17 point run in 1-1 1/2 min so that must be off.

Thanks for posting though.

The game was 45 minutes with OT, but you make a valid point.

It's not right. They actually have a disclaimer there that says:


"* +/- data is estimated due to inconsistent substitution data"

"Also note that at times you might see lineups with less than 5 players due to inconsistent substitution data"


But even that doesn't seem to account for it. I went through the box score really quickly. Robinson sat out four different stretches in the first half. He played all of the second half and all of the overtime. Here are the results of those four stretches:

Out - Ahead by one
In - Behind by two (three points total)

Out - Down by two
In - Down by five (six points total)

Out - Down by one
In - Down by five (10 points total)

Out - Down by five
In - Down by seven (12 points total)


So if they were -12 when he was off the court then they must have been +8 when he was on.
