Teams high on this list tend to have good/heady/veteran leadership at the ballhandling positions? Near the bottom of these teams, NOK are led by one of the top PG's, Chris Paul. Yet he's young. _________________ 40% of all statistics are wrong. |

Interesting data. A couple things I noticed:
StDev on offense: 13.1
StDev on defense: 10.4
This suggests to me that poor offense is a more significant cause than quality defense. Correlating both the offensive and defensive counts to the four factors (thanks Knickerblogger) nothing really jumps out, but looking at pace yields a -.6 correlation between pace and 24 second violations commited. So slow teams violate the shot clock more often, which makes a lot of sense. |
