Standard Tendex Rating: (Tendex raw statistical formula)

(Points) + (Rebounds) + (Assists) + (Steals) + (Blocks) - (Missed Field Goals) - 0.5 * (Missed Free Throws) - (Turnovers) - (Fouls Committed) / (Minutes Played) / (Game Pace (Possessions Per Game, typically ranges from 60 to 75))


Modified Tendex Rating: (Tendex weighted average statistical formula)

(Points) + (Rebounds) + 1.25 * (Assists) + 1.25 * (Steals) + (Blocks) - 1.25 * (Turnovers) - (Missed Field Goals) - (Missed Free Throws / 2) - (Fouls Committed / 2)  / (Minutes Played) / (Game Pace (Possessions Per Game, typically ranges from 60 to 75))


European Tendex Rating (Performance Index Rating (PIR)): (EuroLeague / EuroCup)

Statistics in basketball are kept to evaluate a player's or a team's performance.

Offensive proficiency rating or offensive productive efficiency is a statistic used in basketball to measure either a team's offensive performance or an individual player's efficiency at producing points for the offense by approximating the number of points generated by a team or individual over 100 possessions. It was created by author and statistician Dean Oliver.

The 1974–75 Washington Bullets played in their 14th season, 2nd in the Washington, D.C. area, and first under the Washington Bullets name. The franchise changed their name from the Capital Bullets to the Washington Bullets. The franchise captured its 6th division title in 7 years by posting a franchise best record of 60–22. The Bullets were nearly unbeatable at home posting a record of 36–5 at the Capital Centre. The Bullets won their second Eastern Conference title, but similar to their 1971 appearance, were swept in the NBA Finals in four games, this time by the Golden State Warriors. The Bullets had the best team defensive rating in NBA history (91.3).

In professional basketball, the most commonly used statistical benchmark for comparing the overall value of players is called efficiency. It is a composite basketball statistic that is derived from basic individual statistics: points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, and shot attempts. In theory, efficiency accounts for both a player's offensive contributions and their defensive contributions, but it is generally thought that efficiency ratings favor offense-oriented players over those who specialize in defense, as defense is difficult to quantify with currently tabulated statistics.

Performance Index Rating (PIR) is a basketball mathematical statistical formula that is used by the Euroleague Basketball Company's first and second tier competitions, the EuroLeague and the EuroCup, as well as various European national domestic and regional leagues.
