Inquiries into stats and comparative detail
Re: Inquiries into stats and comparative detail
Foul rate is now just the highest in 18 years compared to season data, down from 40 years.

LeBron's 10+ pt streak is over.
BPM before tonight was -0.6.
Points and rebounds per minute down 40%.
Small sample but...

Re: Inquiries into stats and comparative detail
This kind of streak seems kind of sketchy. Lots of games he didn't score 10 because he didn't play. Very few, perhaps none, where he left early due to injury.
Last night, Draymond Green had zero assists, breaking a streak of games with at least 1. He got hurt @ 9 minutes.
(Last time he got 0, it was a 3 minute appearance last Jan.)
No player should be encouraged to play hurt, just to keep a trivial streak going.

Leaguewide fg% from 0-3 feet began to move up noticeably in 2017-18. Frequency started to decline. Fg% from 3-10 feet started to rise noticeably in 2020-21 with frequency rising. Both are currently 6% higher than seen in late 2010s. About 6% of frequency has shifted from 0-3 feet to 3-10 feet as well. Longer layups, floaters, hooks, short jumpers, whatever, it is more used. Relatively inefficient but better than past.
Long 2s from 16-23 feet quickly fell from earliest data in late 1990s from almost 46% to near 40% a few years later and have stayed there.

"Floaters" or runners or "teardrop" (Mark Jackson) are usually major penetration moves, often drawing a C or other big. I wonder if these can be separated out and an O-Reb% increase found.
In other words, a 45% FGA with a 40% OReb chance could be a much better ORtg on the play.
A shot virtually no one would take in the previous century is very much a staple now for perhaps half of NBA guards/wings.

By a simple sum of I believe individual efficiency measures of bench players
https://www.hoopsstats.com/basketball/f ... iffeff/1-1
3 assumed contenders have bottom 5 benches and 2 more are at least 20th.
6 contenders or possible contenders rank high. Rockets and Thunder only 9th and 10th respectively.
Other methods should be found / considered. Sum of minutes weighted actial EPM or another quality metric with a RAPM component (especially for defense).
