  • A Pareto Principle Analysis of the NBA: How Production Distribution Affects Team Success
    51 A Pareto Principle Analysis of the NBA: How Production Distribution Affects Team Success Cole Berner, University of Alaska Fairbanks Joshua M. Lupinek, Montclair State University Jim Arkell, University of Alaska Fairbanks Margaret Keiper, University of Alaska Fairbanks Abstract The Pareto Principle, also known as the 80/20 rule, states that in general “80 percent of consequences stem from 20 percent of causes” (Bunkley, 2008, p. 1). This research examines the relationship between the 80/20 rule and the National Basketball Association (NBA) with respect to the distribution of individual player production through secondary data analysis and linear regression modeling. While there are only so many superstars to go around, this research examines the Pareto Principle as an analytic dashboard metric that league executives can look at to try to find success in the “Big Three Era.” Regression modeling from ten NBA seasons (2008/09 – 2017/18) shows a negative correlation between the 80/20 Principle and regular season wins, suggesting that NBA franchises be cautious of constructing top-heavy rosters. The equation and term “Simple Game Score” (SGS) is also introduced as a unique statistic. Introduction The purpose of this paper is to introduce a unique resource metric that both National Basketball Association (NBA) general managers and coaches can utilize longitudinally for roster construction within team analytic dashboard software (Athithya, 2019) where performance stats are represented in an interactive format. Additionally, the equation and term “Simple Game Score” (SGS) is also introduced as a unique statistic. This study continues the Global Sport Business Journal Pareto Principle discussion, brought forward in the article “A Pareto principle analysis of the NHL: Why ice hockey is the ultimate team game” (Lupinek, Chafin, & Arkell, 2017), by utilizing an 80/20 Principle theoretical framework to analyze whether NBA team success is influenced by the amount of production the top 20% of rostered players produce relative to the rest of the team.
