CIT 2022. UGA ‘27. Tweeting about sports from an analytical perspective. Desperate for a Washington sports team to be good and hoping Ovi will break the record.
Finishing chart for Sunday #NBA games.
Magic REALLY miss Paolo
Hawks had 5 of the leagues top 7 scorers above expected yesterday (Trae, Nance, Roddy, Daniels, Johnson)
Finishing chart for Saturday #NBA games.
Utah Jazz struggle once again.
Rockets continue to create high percentage looks, but the Warriors stay hot shooting the ball.
OKC continues to contest and defend shots at a high clip.
Finishing chart for Friday #NBA games
Magic offense struggles without Banchero (and Wendell Carter ig). Gotta find more looks for their shooter like KCP and Harris
Pelicans look rather competent even with all their injuries
Great games from Shai and JDub lift OKC to a win
Finishing chart for Tuesday #NBA games
W finishing from almost every team yesterday. Tough day for the Jazz w/o Markkanen for most of the game.
Kings continue to rely on Fox, Sabonis, DeRozan for most of their scoring.
Jokic carries the scoring load for the Nuggets once again.
Final Capitals thoughts and then I’ll shut up
Overall fantastic start. It’ll slow down but everything is really encouraging. Weird schedule to start the year, but having games in hand is the ultimate NHL superpower. We look like we deserve a playoff spot.
Thoughts on the Caps 10% into the season, a thread #ALLCAPS
- Extend Chychrun
- Strome is somehow even better
- McMichael is a stud and it’ll continue
- 2nd and 4th lines dominating
- Protas contract is a steal
- Pick a goalie and extend him before Igor breaks the market
Even more Capitals thoughts
- PLD might not be worth the money, but I’m not mad that he’s here anymore
- Maybe mix a little Sonny Milano in there at some point
Finishing chart for Monday #NBA games.
Orlando shooting below expected with the night they got from Paolo Banchero is a little crazy.
Threw in player chart for Wizards/Hawks game. Shoutout Bilal Coulibaly for what he did to Trae Young last night.
Finishing chart for Sunday #NBA games.
Rough shooting day for most teams.
OKC Thunder have forced the day’s worst shooting on their opponent in every game this season. Defense is as advertised even without Hartenstein.
Team Finishing charts for Friday and Saturday’s #NBA games
Thunder and Bulls combined for -44.5 Points Above Expected. Coby White and Ayo Dosunmu responsible for almost half of that by themselves.
Wizards with more xPoints than their opponent in 2/2 games (vs Celtics and Cavs)
Not just a reaction to tonight’s game, but Caps might have to move Ovechkin off the PP. Dude takes up half the ice to almost never get the puck and Strome/PLD don’t have room to create on the right side. Something��s gotta change, what they have right now isn’t working.
#ALLCAPS
Points vs Expected Points chart for Wednesday #NBA games, adjusted for possessions
Timberwolves rely on strong finishing for the 2nd game in a row, this time from Randle and Naz
Nuggets couldn’t buy a make from 3
Wemby will only be an efficient scorer rn if he dials back the 3s
Only two major thoughts after todays #NBA games:
1. The Cavs are gonna make noise in the East
2. The Hornets will ruin someone’s season
Cavs offense was crazy tonight. Impressive output from Golden State considering a slow start from Curry.
Might try to start tweeting about sports again for like the ninth time or something.
Here are some charts I made about the finishing quality in last nights NBA games
