Poring through the CARMELO system that is weirdly down to Clint Capela and Corey Brewer.
The ESPN-sponsored data journalism site FiveThirtyEight recently presented the world with their NBA player projections system, playfully backronymed as C.A.R.M.E.L.O, which stands for career arc regression model estimator with local optimization.
You can read up on its origin and methodology in the introductory article on FiveThirtyEight, but basically, it is a fancy way of saying, "we look at a bunch of players like [insert name], and we guessed how [insert name] will perform based on how those guys performed." ESPN's Calvin Watkin already has written a preview for the Rockets on FiveThirtyEight based on CARMELO, so consider this a supplementary piece.
