How about we start by asking for an analytics model that tries to capture defensive play? Because that's where Nurse is egregiously bad, and how he costs his team games.
Never mind intangibles; this particular model doesn't even try to capture all the tangibles. It seems to be based entirely on offensive production per dollar of the contract, allowing for probable trends due to the player's age.
