That's not really what you intended, is it?

You are correct. That is not the thought I was trying to convey. After doing some research, I found that most OPR-like measurements used throughout the sports community (like basketball) literally are just the average score. However due to the nature or FRC scores being unreliable because of differing alliance partners and competitors, the community has developed a more developed and complex yet more accurate way to calculate OPRs. The cause for this description within the document was to simplify the statement and not bring in too much additional and unessential information. I intended this document to be used by both strategically experienced individuals as well as individuals who are new to strategy and scouting.
I apologize for the confusion within that statement.
