Pelicanswith & without
Put any Pelicans on the floor, take any off, and see how the team has played in exactly those minutes. Rebuilt from every substitution of 8 games. The biggest gap so far: H. Jones, +21.5 with him and −16.5 without. At the other end, S. Bey: −6.3 with him, +11.3 without. On/off says what happened, not who caused it.

With him, without him
The team's number with each player on the floor and without him. The gap is the difference, biggest first. It says what happened, not who caused it. Fifty possessions each way to qualify.
What the numbers mean
Net rating is points scored minus points allowed per 100 possessions. The gap compares the minutes in your filter with all the others. A big one is a lead to follow, not a verdict.
Mind the sample
Lineups change with the opponent, the score and garbage time, and early in a season a few minutes move everything. That is why the sample meter sits under every result.
Where it comes from
We rebuild who was on the floor from the play-by-play and check each game against the official minutes. Possessions are estimated. The full method.
