The User Guide for Real Player Ratings, and for the Defensive Adjustments, is here. You must consult the User Guide in order to fully understand the ratings and the value of them, and to undertand how to make the best use of them.

A COUPLE OF QUICK NOTES (A tiny sample of User Guide content)
1. The average defensive sub rating of the 376 NBA plyaers who played at least 300 minutes in 2008-09 is .406.
2. The very best guards in basketball are ones who, although they are not afraid to drive to the hoop from time to time, are able to make outside shots at a good rate. Also, guards in general, and especially point guards, are usually primarily responsible for making assists. These two are among the several reasons why the better guards in pro basketball will have the highest offensive sub ratings in the League. For more, see the User Guide, especially the section near the end of it titled "THE BEST GUARDS WILL HAVE THE HIGHEST OFFENSIVE SUB RATINGS".
