REAL PLAYER RATINGS FOR A SINGLE GAME WITH SPECIAL HIDDEN DEFENDING ADJUSTMENT
Each player's hidden defending rating from the regular season is used as the Hidden Defending Adjustment (HDA). Obviously, players in any individual game including this one were not exactly as good defenders as they were on the average during the regular season. But since there is no way to provide HDA for individual games and since it is better to have some reasonable HDA than none at all, we use the season HDA as a reasonable substitute.
--Real Player Rating shows you the quality of players quickly and accurately.
