I'm much better at the data stuff than the writing stuff (although still bad at both), so here's a quick data pull of what how Linsanity compared to measly old Lin (the sane stats).
When Linsanity took place: Days 80-100
Number of Games: 13
Possession Advantage and Efficiency - 2016-2017 Season
As a follow up to yesterday’s Diversity Pod and a precursor to whenever we do the analytics pod, I wanted to share a deeper dive on some of the metrics that I look at to evaluate players. I’ll be the first to tell you that I’m not an “expert”...
Happy TC eve everyone! On this merriest of occasions, and as I'm being reintroduced to the workforce (and thereby eager for procrastination methods), I thought I'd take a look at all of the Owed Picks (first rounders only) and geta sense of which picks are most valuable, which are least valuable,...
Are you playing with a bunch of kindergartener or old man ball? i was looking through teams after TC and saw some pretty interesting teams that i thought others would be interested in. big thing i noticed is that the Hawks have an exceptionally balanced team in terms of age. and if you took out...
Light day at work after a long start to the week, so I’m scribin’ and scribblin’ on a Thursday. It was the mid-2000s last time I did this exercise. Many things have changed, like a Madlib beat or chameleon getting out of a codependent relationship. Many things have not, like Woo’s underwear. GOT...
For a second offseason, back by popular demand. Oh no, why would you set me up like that!
KEMBA YOU MISS HIM DON'T YOU

I UNDERSTAND, I'M BACK BY SWAMPULAR DEMAND
THAT LOU WILL FLY

Did a little bit of digging this past season to see how teams performed in the second half and fourth quarter. Not sure if having more comebacks implies you got that dog in you or you can't win in all four quarters, but either way the t-wolves are top 10 in something (4th quarter comebacks as the...
I’m back in a plane so we are gonna try to bang out another one of these. Same as last time, we are gonna power rank the positions available in free agency. This year seems to be a much more fun free agency, with a mix of vets and young guns available.
In the history of SLN, The midwest has the highest overall win %, the most playoff wins, and the most playoff appearances and finals appearances per team, and the most championships per team (tied with the Central).
That's it. Thanks for coming to my ted talk. Midwest >>>
1. Golden State Warriors: Jayson Tatum (SF) - Duke
Needs: C, SG, PG; Defense
The Golden State Warriors have finally hit rock bottom and thus gifted the number one pick. Lucky for them, a number of potential superstars are available. Perhaps the last thing this team needs is another wing that can...
D’Aaron Da Ball (Makes it Bounce): The 2017 Big Board
We are in the 11th hour before the draft, but I just landed back from the west coast so it’s really only the 8th hour on my body block. Let’s hammer out a quick and dirty big board with minimal research before Golden State is on the clock!...
Hi All. I believe Derek did something similar where he graded resigned contracts and their value. I did something a little different. I went thru every resigning and non resigning on a team by team basis, and alluded to what the implications are for that team and those players in the offseason....
35 Year Old Dwyane Wade has still got it. He is shooting over .500, leading the league in 3P% at 52%, and has a true shooting percentage of 61.2%. On top of retaining a near 2:1 stocks:TO.
I looked around the league and it looks like Wade is leading the league in TS% this year. Boban is above 60%,...
Every season, the SLN landscape shifts. Sometimes it is subtle. Other times, much more blatant.
Even if teams remain the same, the FBB gods are infamously fickle. Players evolve…they get worse. Our expectations of them can change rapidly.
Using the same data set as my last article, I parsed out the top scorers by position. There's also a column to the far right of each table indicating the ranking among players of all positions.
The leading scorers are typically SFs (especially if you count Dirk as a SF). The leading efficiency...
