APBRmetrics

thanks a ton BLI, will consider this approach tomorrow when I'm more awake

yea not much there unfortunately, seems something nobody has thought/written much about yet, )!@4ing hollinger :-p. Just seems so inaccurate to me that both teams will have IDENTICAL # of possessions in every game, and then when you look at how Pace is calculated: 48 * ((Tm Poss + Opp Poss) / (2 * (...

I assumed a lot of people here would know about this it seems like an extremely common aspect of advanced stats. I guess I will phrase the question another way, is it possible for a team to get 16 points on a single possession? i.e. make a 3, get fouled, miss FT, ORB make a 3, get fouled, miss FT, O...

so as I've been building out some stats for my personal use I came across Poss in bball ref ( http://www.basketball-reference.com/about/glossary.html ) , used in both Pace and DRTG. The formula is defined as below: 0.5 * ((Tm FGA + 0.4 * Tm FTA - 1.07 * (Tm ORB / (Tm ORB + Opp DRB)) * (Tm FGA - Tm F...

I keep seeing HCA mentioned in many of these, and yet can't find a single place mentioning how it is being calculated. Is HCA different than simply MOV while at home? or maybe like HCA = (AvgMOV-Home - AvgMOV-Away) / Games Played?

awesome thank you guys very much, going to do a little research today and then get to implementing.

so I've looked through the posts worth reading, and haven't found anything on how to deal with adjusting stats based on strength of competition. Any advice or places to read for this would be awesome. Thanks
