The anonymous Python is missing the role regularization plays in the presence of collinearity... APM without regularization can lead to unstable estimates of player performance

"Get rid of the regularization and stick with simple single season APM. That’s the point where we introduce all these quasi-predictive elements into our MVP debates, and get ourselves all turned around. We might get some surprising results that challenge our conventional wisdom, but at least we'd be measuring what actually happened on the court."

Can we, general fans on the internet, view simple single season APM anywhere? Sorry if I'm just bad at Google but not finding it.
