Reading the ratings
Both numbers are on the log scale the model works in.
Attack higher = scores more. Defence lower = concedes
fewer, so a negative defence rating is a good thing.
Net is attack minus defence and ranks overall strength.
Ratings are fitted per league and are not comparable across them — a Bundesliga
+0.5 and a Serie A +0.5 do not mean the same thing.
| # | Team | Attack | Defence | Net | Strength |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 New York Knicks |
+1.097 | -9.134 | +10.231 | |
| 2 |
 Toronto Raptors |
-0.544 | -3.517 | +2.974 |
Both figures are on the log scale used inside the model. Higher attack means more goals scored; lower defence means fewer conceded, so net = attack − defence ranks overall strength.
