I agree. There is some great data there but there are some errors and some misinformation there. I did send them something and having checked just now, they did update it. Basically for 1971 NBA Draft, they had no record for Mo Layton. But if you went to the team, his stats were there.
My biggest complaint are the names they use. For ABA, they are not familiar with the names so they use full proper names for many players. Like Cincinnatus Powell instead of Cincy Powell. They also use the Muslim names when players changed them for all seasons instead of from the season it changed going forward.
Lastly, computer sims and boardgame companies copy the data verbatim so the names there are not the common names used for some players as well.
