Season Stats 28-29: Advanced Metrics

[pacers]

Hey team - I'm back with more metrics. Instead of sharing a subset of metrics, I thought I'd share the entire set of metrics I track, for every player who played over 500 minutes in the 2028-29 season, in a single spreadsheet. I'll also list the leaders below. If people are fans of this I can do this every season.

Here's the link:

Definitions

• Possessions: FGA + TO + 0.44*FTA
• Weighted Poss/36: Poss - Steals - 0.75*Blocks - 0.5*Reb Adv
• Unweighted Poss/36: Poss - Steals - Blocks - Reb Adv
• Weighted ADV: Points / Weighted Net Poss
• Unweighted ADV: Points / Unweighted Net Poss
• Weighted Poss Advantage: Steals + 0.75 Blocks + 0.5 Reb ADV - TO
• Unweighted Poss Advantage: Steals + Blocks + Reb ADV - TO
• TO Tendency: TO / Poss
• Miss Tendency: FGMiss / Poss
• Unproductive Action Tendency: TO Tendency + Miss Tendency
• Weighted Unproductive Action Tendency: (TO + FGMiss) / Weighted Poss
• Unweighted Unproductive Action Tendency: (TO + FGMiss) / Unweighted Poss

Deandre Ayton good

This is fun to dig through

[Joe]

Only two non bigs on the stocks per 36 - thybulle and my mans reed

[Joe]

The difference between semi and the next guy on that turnover tendency list is mind bottling - he’s better than twice as good as AG in #2 spot

[quady]

@pacers do you mind reposting or adding the explainers on the things you created?

[R B]

So Bazley / Gafford really was an elite frontcourt combo last year. Embarrassing I couldn’t get more than 39 wins
