Thanks for your prompt reply. I think that you point out some pertinent info, not the least of which is the growing number of managers who play this great game. And so I yield to your—and the other BB developers—good judgment on this point. I believe that you ARE right—there are other greater priorities. Thanks again...Pappy

that with a little perl scripting this information could already be automatically pulled from the site.


/perks up

OK, now I have a little project to do with my BBAPI perl library during the football games. Woo.

FWIW, I've added opponent stats support to my own little personal Team Prospectus script. Here's you:

Dog River Riverdogs (24118), Pappy ODaniel
7-6, 4th place (Great 8, II.4, USA)
(Differential +69, Pythagorean record: 8.4-4.6)

Game strategy (16 competitive matches):
* Offense: Push the Ball 6, Look Inside 5, Motion 3, Run and Gun 2
* Defense: 2-3 Zone 10, Man to Man 4, 3-2 Zone 2
* Enthusiasm: 5 less (0 TIE vs CT), 8 equal, 3 more (0 CT vs TIE)

Overall stats:
* DOG: 41.0 FG%, 29.2 3P%, 58.0 REB (14.8 O), 17.8 A, 4.9 ST, 9.6 TO, 12.8 PF
* Opp: 40.4 FG%, 23.7 3P%, 48.9 REB (10.4 O), 18.8 A, 6.1 ST, 6.8 TO, 18.1 PF

Thank you very much for the information and for the work that you have done! I'm not exactly sure what all of the information means but it is impressive. Is it possible to tell me what the Pythagorean record might mean? Thanks again...Pappy

I had done most of the work already... I've been using this tool as part of occasional previews/reviews I write up on the Canada conferences. I spent a little time adding the stats section.

Here's some info on Pythogorean records: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_expectation). For BB, I eyeballed an exponent of 10.

Okay, I'm just voicing my support for showing Opponents Stats on our Team Stats page. I think it's very useful. I can figure out average points per game from the Standings page with very simple math, but I don't really know how I've gotten to these scoring averages and what part of my game needs the most fixing overall. (Am I shooting at a higher percentage than my opposition? If not, maybe I'm getting more rebounds and more FG attempts? Maybe my low turnover stats are a product the type of offense I'm running? Are my opponents' turnovers also low? What about the team I'm playing next, how do they stack up against their opposition? Are they turning the ball over a lot? Do they out-rebound their opponents? What defense will I need to run to slow them down? What offense looks like it will work against such a team? etc.)

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!
