Rating Scale for PC Effectiveness or Productivity Per Minute                                                    

 

Above .650 - Superstar category. Normally, only a handful of players each season reach this level of performance.                

.550-.649 -All-Stars are in this range, or either just below or above it.                   

.450-.549 - Good players who are sometimes outstanding fall into this category.                

.350-.449 -Regulars. Solid players who are either starters or among a team's first seven or eight regulars.                        

.250-.349 -Poor. Players here are mostly rookies, or vets whose skills are declining. Could be solid at position defense. That EFFORT does not show up on a boxscore.                

Below .249 - Awful. Players in this category are living life on the edge. Most are soon traded or released or sent to the G-League.
