Berri’s arrogance continues to amaze.

He’s taken some alternative metrics, compared them to his own, and then listed the biggest differences. Now, that’s a valid and interesting thing to do. And if his post was titled ‘Players For Whom Other Metrics Disagree With WP”, I’d have no problem.

But it doesn’t say that. It labels all these players as overrated, period. But wouldn’t John Hollinger call all of the players in the second list underrated? The idea that Corey (who’s paid $7M per year, by the way, the ultimate mechanism for rating players) is ‘overrated’ simply because he scores a lot seems dubious.

Berri’s arrogance aside, I don’t necessarily disagree with the sell high idea. Although it remains unclear who the buyer might be.
