2009-10 Defensive Efficiency (Hollinger)

I thought that a good place to start talking Advanced Fantasy Basketball would be with some ranking. The rankings you see will represent the sort of stats we will utilize over the life of this blog. The first is Defensive Effiency.

• PACE: Pace Factor - the number of possessions a team uses per game.
• AST: Assist Ratio - the percentage of a team's possessions that ends in an assist. Assist Ratio = (Assists x 100) divided by [(FGA + (FTA x 0.44) + Assists + Turnovers]
• TO: Turnover Ratio - the percentage of a team's possessions that end in a turnover. Turnover Ratio = (Turnover x 100) divided by [(FGA + (FTA x 0.44) + Assists + Turnovers]
• ORR: Offensive rebound rate
• DRR: Defensive rebound rate
• REBR: Rebound Rate - the percentage of missed shots that a team rebounds. Rebound Rate = (Rebounds x Team Minutes) divided by [Player Minutes x (Team Rebounds + Opponent Rebounds)]
• EFF FG%: Effective Field Goal Percentage
• TS%: True Shooting Percentage - what a team's shooting percentage would be if we accounted for free throws and 3-pointers. True Shooting Percentage = (Total points x 50) divided by [(FGA + (FTA x 0.44)]
• OFF EFF: Offensive Efficiency - the number of points a team scores per 100 possessions.
• DEF EFF: Defensive Efficiency - the number of points a team allows per 100 possessions.
