The Scalabrine Watch Week 3

This season the NBA has listened to one of my many thoguht and has started to track a players +/- during the course of individual games. Due to my intense dislike of Brian Scalabrine, I am going to track the inept deadbeat in a weekly post called The Scalabrine Watch.

Celtics 101 Pacers 86: +8
Another Celtic beatdown means another game where Scalabrine gets to enter drop a couple of threes in watered down minutes and have his plus/minus suckle off the Big Three's tit.

Game Stats: 15 Minutes, 2-5, 9 Points, 1 Rebound, 0 Assists

Celtics 91 Nets 69: +3
Almost amazing how a person could have a plus/minus of only positive 3 when they are involved in a 22 point blow out.

Game Stats: 10 Minutes, 0-1, 0 Points, 2 Rebounds, 1 Assist

Celtics 92 Heat 91: -5
Apparently Scalabrine wasn't a good matchup or something against the Heat and thus only entered the game for a total of 6 minutes. But he must have left a good impression on some Heat player as he left with a -5.

Game Stats: 6 Minutes, 0-3, 0 Points, 1 Rebound, 0 Assists

Celtics 102 Orlando 104: -2
The Celtics were going to lose eventually and yesterday was that day. For the second consecutive game Scalabrine got limited minutes, and for the second consecutive game he produced just about nothing during those limited minutes. -2 on the +/- -2 on the scoreboard.

Game Stats: 6 Minutes, 0-1, 0 Points, 0 Rebounds, 1 Assist

Overall Week Performance: +4
Another week and another positive for Scalabrine. This week however, Scalabrine sprinkled in two negative outings amidst two Celtics close contests. Meaning if he was not on the floor during those games, there's a decent chance the Celtics do not split them. Well that was a vast overstatement of course, but regardless it's nice to see the Celtics decreasing his minutes to single digits.

Week Stats: 35 Minutes, 2-10, 9 Points, 4 Rebounds, 2 Assists

Overall Season Performance: +36
Scalabrine still has a much higher Season performance than I was expecting, but atleast its continually coming down to earth week after week. The man is bad at basketball and should not be making anywhere near what he does.

Season Stats:13 MPG, .320 FG%, 2.9 PPG, 2.1 RPG, 1 APG

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
