Note: the following data was collected before last night’s win over the Phoenix Suns.
With three games logged, I wanted to see what we could gather in the strategy behind the Spurs’ scoring methods so far. Some more advanced stats won’t be available from the NBA until players have more than 10 shots from a variety of scenarios (i.e. isolation, P&R handler, spot up, catch & shoot, etc.), so for now, we can dive into basic location and usage in each area.
A quick caveat again, most teams have only played three games at this point in time, which makes it difficult to assess a general strategy for teams as their opponent set is not too diverse.
