Nothing beats a Tatum heat check in Charlotte (peep D-White attracting enough attention to open up JT’s 3 because his own shot is falling tonight)

Added a game finder tool to accompany my threshold one. Let's you run a query using your own custom stats cutoffs(Box Score & Tracking Based) , and see which games in the last 12 years a player met said cutoffs. Link Below!

Strong agree, this is why everyone should join my hyper specific cause for the all possesions view in league pass to include the entire shotclock.
If you want to build knowledge of the league, it's way, way better to watch less games more slowly than to try and binge as many games as possible. Games aren't a chore to get through. You learn by studying closely, trying to think thru what everyone is doing, and why.

I think people should be really careful with speculation. You don't know what's going on in a person's personal life.

A bit of an aside, but @NBA any chance you can change the logic here to include the entire shot clock? It's super useful as is, but in halfcourt settings it would be nice to see how a team setup their offense, and you lose some of that by not including the full 24 seconds.
If you have League Pass, you can watch condensed games which take between 45-60 minutes to get through. This is a HUGE part of how I'm able to watch so many games. Everyone is different, but if you're going to be a league-wide voice, you have to watch games. It's not hard to do.

Something I've always struggled with is intuitively contextualizing scoring. How much of a change in production is due to a shift in shot location vs conversion? What would scoring output look like if you presumed last seasons baselines? So, I made a tool for that!👇

One hyper critical caveat. Basketball is a dynamic sport. Ie change in how well you finish from three adjusts how hard you will be covered in a close out, which adjusts the relative quality of your shot at the rim.

This tool should be used to explore deviations in output, not declare them.
