by j0Shi on Jan 18, 2012 3:17 PM CST in Opinion/Analysis

This is an auto-generated statistical overview of todays opponent of the Dallas Mavericks. The data is only presented for your review and apart from the glossary it features no additional comments. Please post in the comment section if you'll find any uncertainties that should be included in the glossary. Throughout the season this overview could be tweaked here and there, so stay tuned for updates! In the current form it features:

Overall Stats
Possession-Type Efficiencies
Players that will hurt you
Players that will help you
Lineups that will hurt you
Lineups that will help you
Shot Locations & Shot Distances
Full Heat-Chart

Please note that some of the data-tables don't fit into the "narrow" layout of this page. Please switch to the Wide one.

I also recommend to visit SynergySports for their preview of the two teams.

Dude, how much time do you spend on this? to think, you do this almost every day

It hurts my head just looking at it. Nice job though.

Not much of actual work

Took some time to code the stats-engine but almost everything you’ll see and read is some sort of 1-click procedure for me. Just have to copy and paste the generated HTML code over to MMB.

fantabulous.

It’s great to have our very own number cruncher.
Btw some of the charts seem cut off at the end, maybe it’s because of my browser.
Lol at the heat chart. I’m seeing that blob at the center and it is screaming Griffin and Jordan.

Clipper fan here

this stat page is sexy as all hell! Couple of clarifications though, if you have Evans as a weakness then there is a flaw in the system. Evans is one of the best per minute rebounders in the league if the Mavs don’t body him up then he will kill you on glass especially on the offensive side. He won’t do anything on offense outside of set screens but he is most definitely not a weakness. Good luck in the game tonight.
