NBA.com evaluates all players based on the efficiency formula: ((Points + Rebounds + Assists + Steals + Blocks) - ((Field Goals Att. - Field Goals Made) + (Free Throws Att. - Free Throws Made) + Turnovers)).


The main problem I have with NBA's PER is that it gives too much bias to players who are scorers. To count a block as the same value as a single point is crazy to me. Similar with steals. It doesn't give credit where credit is due. There are so many instances where the easiest part of the play was the layup due to a great pass, but the shooter gets 2 points and the great pass only gets 1.
