In case anyone missed it, acrossthecourt has posted RAPM's (prior and non-prior) for the seasons of 1997 to 2000. That now gives us 17 seasons of RAPM data to work with.

Observations:
-Michael Jordan comes out well
-John Stockton and David Robinson both look really underrated in their forgotten end of career seasons
-Shaq is the real winner. His RAPM's are ridiculous. 17th, 1st, 2nd, and 1st from 1997 to 2000. He was also consistently in the top 10 from 01-06 which gives him a pretty good 10 year prime that doesn't include his 93-96 years.
