BBR News: Expanded Box Score Information
Posted by Justin Kubatko on January 6, 2010
This should probably be filed under "Things I Should Have Done a Long Time Ago", but I finally got around to expanding the information available in our box scores. Near the top of the page you will find a "Four Factors" summary for each team, along with the game's Pace Factor and each team's Offensive Rating. Also note that in each team's box score you may toggle between basic box score statistics (points, rebounds, etc.) and advanced box score statistics (offensive rating, defensive rating, etc.). Please note that the advanced box score statistics are estimates based on the game logs and are not derived from play-by-play accounts. I hope you enjoy these additions, and please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for improvement. Lastly, let me supply the answer to a question I'm sure I will get: yes, I plan to incorporate these new additions into the Player Game Finder soon.

Nice add. I guess it's a reaction for some of the other basketball analytics web sites.
