With the NBA season coming to close on Wednesday for most teams, collections of data can now be gathered and analyzed with less than a handful of games remaining for certain teams. For the San Antonio Spurs, they’ll conclude their final week of the season Monday in Portland and then Wednesday in Utah.
In evaluating some data the Spurs have collected over the season through 80 games, I wanted to revisit a piece I wrote back on January 8, which detailed how despite an increase in scoring league wide, the Spurs have still been able to hold their opponents below 100 points in a game more times than allowing the opposite from their opponents.
