Appreciate the current stats, clickable columns, etc.

Looking around these questions come to mind:

Are team 4 factors year to year gone as a space choice or for another reason or will they return?

Will the year to year league average stat page return or is it somewhere that I don't see?

Have the similarity scores been scrapped?

The similarity scores will return. Four factors may or may not return.

I beefed up the player game logs and game log finder today. First, I added age in years and days to the game logs (e.g., LeBron James). LeBron was 23 years and 18 days old last night. :-)

I also added the ability to search by age through the game logs. For example, here's a list of all teenagers who have scored 30 or more points in a game since 1986-87.

There might still be some bugs with this, so please let me know if something funky happens when you do a search.

In the game logs, the minutes played are being shown like 4349 rather than 43:49. Unless Antawn Jamison opened the season by playing 4,349 minutes against Indy. Smile

As an aside: What's the best way to format that minutes field in Excel so that I can do stuff like calculate per minute stats?

If all the numbers in the minute field are formatted that way (mmss), you can do "Text to Columns" on that column, and then divide it into a minute and seconds column using "Fixed Width". Then have a third column which is just minutes + seconds/60, to make it a single decimal number.

It seems to happen when I click on the PRE button. Here are a couple examples:

Ah, that's important to know. I thought you meant the values looked like that in the table before conversion. I'll get that taken care of soon.

A suggestion, if you have time/ability:

On the "players" pages, in which all players are listed alphabetically, is it possible to list each player's vital stats - position, height, weight, birthday/birthplace, high school and/or college - on that page?
