Re: a question on 'team' rebounds and estimating possessions

Sorry for reanimating this thread. But I wanted to ask how team rebounds are handled. In simple checks, I found team rebounds in the play by play, but I think they don‘t show up in the boxscores. In such cases I expected to find the overall defensive team rebounds in the boxscore not matching the su...

Re: Calculating separate offensive / defensive RAPM?

Well, lowering the lambda does definitely lead to better looking results. Instead of -2 to +2, I can get up to i.e. -5 to +5. But still most values seem to be off. I mentioned the Gobert example before. In a overall RAPM analysis he has the highest RAPM. But analyzing Offensive and Defensive RAPM, h...

Re: Calculating separate offensive / defensive RAPM?

Unbelievable. I really messed it up when I wrote here how I set everything up. That's not how I did it. The way I did it would be like: O_ID1, O_ID2, O_ID3, O_ID4, O_ID5, O_ID6, O_ID7, O_ID8, O_ID9, O_ID10, ||| D_ID1, D_ID2, D_ID3, D_ID4, D_ID5, D_ID6, D_ID7, D_ID8, D_ID9, D_ID10, ||| ORtg, Poss 1, ...

Re: Calculating separate offensive / defensive RAPM?

Actually, I am using the possessions as the weight. The dependent variable is already per100, it is simply the ORtg. I tried to take your advice regarding the intercept but am struggling so far. I get the idea behind using the league average as the intercept, but I really don't know how to include a...

Re: Calculating separate offensive / defensive RAPM?

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, my setup was just as you described. I just did a bad job to get the syntay right in my last post. And I still struggle to solve this problem. While my overall Vanilla RAPM values are pretty similiar to those of other pages (with i.e. 5.3 as the top value for Rud...

Re: Calculating separate offensive / defensive RAPM?

I followed the steps but was not successful. Overall RAPM analysis is no problem and I get those results. But I can not get seperate ORAPM and DRAPM values. Can somebody tell me why? My analysis for overall RAPM with R looks like this: HomeID1, HomeID2, HomeID3, HomeID4, HomeID5, AwayID6, AwayID7, A...

Re: Building a solid NBA database

Hi rainmantrail, I've read your posts in this forum just recently. I feel like we've encountered very similiar problems. I built up my plusminus database in R on play by play data from (I guess) bbref. We share many of the struggles that you've described, like erroneous time stamps, and solving miss...
