Basketball stats revisited

Posted 2 years ago by Bear

If you enjoyed the New York Times article on Shane Battier that I linked to below you'll also probably like this Podcast of Bill Simmons and John Hollinger talking basketball and specifically basketball statistics. They get a little deeper into why it is hard to keep good basketball stats and go into even more detail on how tough it is to measure defensive statistics.

I know it all sounds a bit dorky and it is, but, well, it's interesting stuff damn it.
