  • An Application to Spatial Statistics to Basketball Analysis; the Case of Los Angeles Lakers from 2007 to 2009
    An application to spatial statistics to basketball analysis; The case of Los Angeles Lakers from 2007 to 2009. Authors (in alphabetical order) Fernando A. Lópeza (corresponding author) Jose A. Martínezb Manuel Ruiza a Department of Quantitative Methods and Computing. Technical University of Cartagena b Department of Management and Marketing. Technical University of Cartagena Abstract The importance of quantitative analysis in sports using objective data such as game statistics is prominent in the last years. In this paper we have shown an application of spatial statistics to better understand the game of basketball. This methodology has been underutilized in sports research, and specifically in basketball. We have depicted how a spatial clustering technique, such as Kulldroff test, which is widely used in epidemiology, can be applied to analyse basketball data. This test detects low and high incidence clusters of shoots, and therefore better characterizes the game of teams and individual players. In addition, we have also used a test based on entropy, the V-test, which serves to statistically compare shooting maps. We show the interesting contribution of this methodological perspective in the case of the analysis of Lakers performance, and the transformation of this team from a medium-level NBA franchise into a champion team because of, among other factors, the incorporation of two key players in the 2007-08 season: Pau Gasol and Derek Fisher. Key words: Basketball, Cluster of shoots, LAL 1 An application to spatial statistics to basketball analysis; The case of Los Angeles LAL from 2007 to 2009. 1.
