  • Chuckers: Measuring Lineup Shot Distribution Optimality Using Spatial Allocative Efficiency Models
    Chuckers: Measuring Lineup Shot Distribution Optimality Using Spatial Allocative Efficiency Models Nathan Sandholtz1 Jacob Mortensen1 Luke Bornn1,2 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] 1. Introduction In the 2017-18 NBA playoffs, Russell Westbrook scored 46 points on 43 shot attempts in a 96-91 loss to the Utah Jazz, ending the Oklahoma City Thunder's season. At the time, many popular media figures conjectured that having one player dominate field goal attempts in this way would limit the Thunder's success. While scoring 46 points in a playoff basketball game is an impressive feat for any one player, its impact on the win column is moderated by the fact that it required 43 attempts. At its core, this critique is about efficiency. Modern discussion around efficiency in the NBA typically focuses on either individual player efficiency or shot selection. Conceptually, the foundation for shot selection efficiency is simple: shots at the rim and 3-point shots have the highest eXpected points per shot, so teams should prioritize these high-value shots. The idea underlying individual player efficiency is also straightforward; scoring more points on the same number of shot attempts increases a team’s chances of winning. However, implicit in any discussion of player efficiency is the idea that inefficient players have a negative impact because basketball is a team sport. We are concerned with efficiency not just because a given player is inefficient, but because inefficient players take shot opportunities away from teammates that may have higher value. In other words, if Westbrook was surrounded by dismal shooters his 43 shot attempts might appear more defensible, but if his inordinate number of attempts prevented highly efficient shots from other players, then he has caused shots to be inefficiently distributed among the players on the team and decreased their winning potential.

  • Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings March 19, 2016
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings March 19, 2016 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 2014 - A Cactus League game between the Reds and Royals is abruptly stopped in the 6th inning when Reds closer Aroldis Chapman is struck in the face by a line drive off the bat of Salvador Perez. Chapman is taken off the field on a stretcher, with fractures above his eye and in his nose, as well as multiple lacerations.The two managers then elect not to continue play, with the blessing of home plate umpire Chris Guccione. MLB.COM Adam Duvall, Tyler Holt bookend Reds' win By Adam McCalvy / MLB.com | @AdamMcCalvy | March 18th, 2016 + 166 COMMENTS PHOENIX -- Adam Duvall had three hits for the Reds, including a long, two-run home run, and Chris Carter hit his third homer for the Brewers as the teams battled back and forth Friday at Maryvale Baseball Park. The Reds ultimately prevailed, 7-6. Carter hit a solo home run in the fourth inning, Kirk Nieuwenhuis hit a tying triple in the fifth and Rymer Liriano lifted a go-ahead sacrifice fly in the sixth as part of a middle-inning comeback for the Brewers, who had won four of their previous five games. But the Reds quickly tied the game at 5 in the seventh inning on Jake Cave's two-out single. Duvall, a candidate for Cincinnati's left field vacancy who manned third base in this game, homered to cap the Reds' three-run first inning. Joey Votto also delivered an RBI single in the inning, but all three runs were unearned against Brewers starter Chase Anderson because of an error charged to left fielder Ryan Braun.

Jones is widely considered the top pound-for-pound fighter in his sport. The potential violation stems from a sample collected after his weigh-in July 28 for his title fight against Daniel Cormier at UFC 214 in Anaheim, California. Jones (23-1) beat Cormier with a vicious third-round head kick, reclaiming his 205-pound belt after sitting out the previous year under suspension for his first failed doping test. The victory appeared to be a return to glory for a fighter who has repeatedly hindered his stellar career with misbehavior outside the octagon. Jones was stripped of his belt in 2015 after his arrest for his involvement in a hit-and-run accident. He was scheduled to fight Cormier for the title in July 2016, but was pulled from the UFC 200 card and eventually suspended for what he claimed was a failed test due to a sexual enhancement pill. Last month, the 30-year-old Jones emphatically denied he has ever used performance-enhancing drugs. Jones hasn’t yet been stripped of his light heavyweight title for a second time, but it will be a formality if the doping violation is confirmed.
