MAVS 108, PELS 92

It's fantastic with eye analysis that explains the stats, thanks for these thoughts Dahlsim. I really like this! There is always a gap in the knowledge between what we see in games, and that raw number on the statsheet. Making that link, closing that gap, is where the best and most difficult analysis is required.

Dahlsim's post is good, but NBA teams do have analytics (based off motion tracking) that should do a lot of that type of analysis. 

In this specific example, the Mavs and the Pels should both - at least after the game - have stats showing both the Pels pushing the tempo against the Mavs 2-bigs line-ups and the Mavs utilisation of the 2-bigs. For the teams this really should no longer be very much about the eye-test and people watching the videos, most of it should be automated.
