Leading off this edition of Daedametrics is the Power Rankings. Formula is derived simply by calculating the difference between Offensive Rating and Defensive Rating. Higher score the better. More on these formulas later!
Bucks currently sit on top with a strong lead. Bulls and Hawks round out the top 3. Grizzlies look positioned to steal the West crown from the Lakers. Wolves end the season with an atrocious -13.791 power rating edging out the Knicks for the Worst of NBADSL for the 2021 season.
The Expected Win Percentage table (EWP) predicts winning percentages via Points for and Points against. This time around I have utilized the Estimated Win Percentage to "predict" the final record. *Note* this does NOT factor in anything other than EWP (your expected win percentage based on PPG and OPPG).
Typically I utilize "EWP" or Estimated Winning Percentage (which utilizes purely your PPG and OPPG in a ratio) to predict how many games you should win. This allows for a REASONABLE picture of the league after about the first third of the season. *Note Standings do not reflect divisions they are sorted simply by predicted record*
Fun fact: Cavs, Rockets, and Mavericks are the only teams in the playoffs to outperform their EWP. Meaning they win a lot of close games.
Next up is the Team Metrics with Possessions, Offensive Rating, Defensive Rating, True Shooting Percentage, Effective Field Goal Percentage, and Rebounding Percentage listed at the top of the table. The top/bottom three of each category are listed at the bottom of the table.
That Heat vs Hawks series should be an absolutely offensive wet dream. #1 pace (with #3 TS and eFG%) vs Near-average pace (with #1 TS and eFG%).
Last but not least is the pretty chart. A better description is the overall rating for each team. Your offensive team rating is weighed against your defensive team rating. Upper right means you're above average in both.
Bucks have a crazy offense. Grizzlies and Lakers have two VERY good defenses. And the Knicks are putrid on offense.
That's all she wrote. I hope you enjoyed this statistical analysis of the league. Players Edition will be released shortly.
