Why Dean Wade is rated +2.2
- +2.2 means his teams score about 2.2 more points per 100 possessions with him than with an average player in his spot, after we account for who he plays with and against. That's the 42nd best of the 337 players we rate.
- It comes from both ends: +1.2 on offense (61st of 337) and +1.0 on defense (69th of 337).
- It's built on 1,500 minutes from this season and last, and the recent games count more.
- He's about where he started the season (+2.3).
- He's playing about 26 minutes a game for Philadelphia, and last season he played like a spot-up shooter.

How the forecast works, and how often it's right
How it works: every season-end rating since 2005-06, and what the same players did one to five seasons later. The typical change only counts players still in the league, so the line is a little rosier than reality for older players; the rotation-player row shows how many dropped out.
