hollingered

The phenomenon where an NBA sports journalist will irrationally choose the Memphis Grizzlies or a Memphis Grizzlies player in a matchup versus a superior opponent. This phenomenon occurs because of the success of one John Hollinger. He is the lone success story of a sports journalists crossing over into the front office of an NBA team. He is the Vice President of Basketball Operations for the Memphis Grizzlies and the the hero of all of his journalistic peers. Because of this, they will applaud and favor anything that he does in hope of his journalistic cinderella story becoming a similar happy ending for them.

hollinger

To manipulate statistics using dubious formulae so as to show one player or person as better than others.

This is taken from the Hollinger player rankings where various formulae are used that defy common belief.

Chris' stats were hollingered to show that he was better than John.
