For as long as basketball has been played, it’s been played with five positions. Today they are point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward and center. A California data geek sees 13 more hidden among them, with the power to help even the Charlotte Bobcats improve their lineup and win more games.


read the article for more info but there is one point i would like to ask

how important to their teams is  Marreese Speights of the Memphis Grizzlies and the Lakers’ Devin Ebanks?

There are only 5 positions, but there are many roles.  I haven't read the article, but the diagram seems to indicate no differentiation between a role and a position.

I know you did.  You said your pastor quotes it all the time.  I got it off your recommendation.   ;)

Very thought-provoking indeed.  He strikes a great balance between anti-intellectualism and over-intellectualism.
