What Changed In Playoffs

Despite the small size of samples and postseason is not over, I have made a quantitative analysis of playoff teams. Download the analysis in spreadsheets in case you would like to.

Not to mention the results of the teams who were eliminated in the first round don't tell the whole story since they have played against only one opponent. First of all, let me explain what "4 factors" is.

The J-Kidd Effect on Mavs' Statistical Facts

NBAstuffer.com has executed the quantitative analysis, Jake Kerr of Mavsmoneyball.com wrote the story.

Read how Jason Kidd has changed Dallas Mavericks' statistical facts.

Earlier, the "Trades Work Out?" article has J-Kidd's individual statistical changes since he has been traded to Dallas.

Here is briefly what changed in Dallas after the trade:

EFFICIENCY
PACE	OFFENSE	DEFENSE
√	×	√

He runs the show with a faster pace, but less efficiently on offense. Team's defensive effort is better.

SHOOTING
eFG%	OPP eFG%
√	√

Mavericks are shooting the ball with a higher effective field goal percentage and forcing the opponents to a lower effective field goal percentage.

REBOUNDING
OR%	DR%

Offensive rebound percentage has decreased while defensive rebounding percentage has increased.

FREE THROWS
FTM/FGA	OPP FTM/FGA
×	√

They are getting to the foul line a with a lower FTM/FGA ratio and forcing opponents to a lower FTM/FGA ratio.

TURNOVERS

Kidd and the Mavs turn the ball over (per possession) more with forcing the opponents to a lower turnover per possession ratio.

2008 Playoffs Stats

READ ME

Basics of modern basketball statistics lies behind the possession fact which must be considered as the key element to calculate team efficiency. The ball can only change hands four different ways:

(1) by making a shot;

(2) by missing a shot and not getting the offensive rebound;

(3) by turning the ball over; and

(4) by going to the line for two or three shots and either making the last shot or not getting the rebound of a missed last shot.

DEFINITIONS

POSSESSION =(Field Goal Attempts)+(Turnovers)+0.4*(Free Throw Attempts) - 1.07*(Offensive Rebounding Percentage)*(Missed Shots)

PACE is the number of possessions a team uses per game.

OFFENSIVE EFFICIENCY is the number of points a team scores per 100 possessions.

DEFENSIVE EFFICIENCY is the number of points a team allows per 100 possessions.

CORRELATION is a value between -1 and +1 that describes the degree of relationship between two variables. Defensive correlations are negative because lower defensive efficiency means better defense.
