These all-decade team things are fun, but what I want is a rolling ten-year team. Who was peak from 05-15? 07-17? 02-12?

When you require more accountability from "student athletes" than election fundraising...I think something's out of wack.
This is an irresponsible graph by the @washingtonpost. Accounting for the % increase of kids on the streets that night, Halloween is probably one of the safest nights for child pedestrians.

TrueHoop's West preview free for all. Some original machine learning analysis supports the idea Lakers' two best players > Clippers. truehoop.com/p/truehoop-201…
TrueHoop's Eastern Conference preview is free for all. truehoop.com/p/truehoop-201… Some cool machine learning projections says that defensive specialist Mitchell Robinson is already the Knicks' MVP by a long shot. He's going to be traded for a volume shooter soon, right?
After reading TrueHoop's preview of EVERY @NBA team, I feel liked I've sucked the marrow from the collective genius of @TrueHoop and @coachthorpe and am now officially ready for the season. #NBATipOff EAST: truehoop.com/p/truehoop-201… WEST: truehoop.com/p/truehoop-201…
In my intro stats class today, I told students the median is a ”resistant” measure of a distribution’s center & is often preferred to the mean in the case of salary data, etc. I jokingly referenced this meme and in the 15 mins’ break they had, a student created this MASTERPIECE!
If you take the win projections from Caesars, FiveThirtyEight, ESPN and Jacob Goldstein's PIPM and average them, this is what you get...

The @dallasmavs Luka Doncic has produced yet another 30-point triple-double tonight. There have been 10 such triple-doubles recorded by players younger than 21 years old in NBA history. Doncic has accounted for seven of them.
I think this Mavericks team might be the most enjoyable watch in the NBA since the 2015-16 Warriors.
My streak of attending every successfully protested game in the last 40 years remains intact.
@StatSmackdown Yes the boom in soccer makes tons of sense. But basketball with the biggest decline of all sports is still a little eye-popping. We know why players left football. I think we want to know why they left hoops even more.
Can you name the only NBA team that’s still undefeated on the road? (Answer below) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Dallas Mavericks (4-0)
@StatSmackdown @KirkSeriousFace As far as I know, it certainly matches up with the regular box score for the DAL game

Does anyone else recall being vaguely troubled by the line “life is but a dream” in Row, Row, Row Your Boat?
Last season saw the NBA's dunk rate surge to its highest point in the 23 seasons for which @nbastats has data.
Hey, @RoyceWebb, are you guys going to publish @JerryEngelmann’s latest Predictive RPM numbers at ESPN any time soon? I know @kpelton has already been using them for next season’s team projections, and suspect they’d be of interest to the broader analytic community...
After 20 years of wandering in the wilderness of super-awkward decade names (“aughts”? “noughties”? “two thousands”? “twenty-tens”), what joy to return to the simple elegance of the Twenties, Thirties, and beyond
Friendly reminder that the 2010s are over in six months...
Hey @BooshHeScores, trophy glory is imminent. @TrueHoop @StatSmackdown #truehoop #statgeeksmackdown
Just talked with an NBA front office exec who got home at 3am after last night's draft, and was back up and at 'em this morning. Pivoting from the June 20 draft to the July 1 launch of free agency is bananas!
Mike Conley will always be a legend in Memphis. Nobody will ever wear #11 again. I’ve known him since he was 19 and scrawny, and I didn’t believe in him. He became one of my favorite players and people. Everything comes to an end. Take care of him, Utah. You’ll love him
@jkubatko Before I ever met Justin, I asked Dean Oliver who we should invite to the Smackdown. He said Justin, and predicted he would win. And he always does.
Undrafted players make up a sneaky-great pool of NBA prospects. Consider the following guys who went undrafted in the 2016 Draft: Fred VanVleet Yogi Ferrell Danuel House Ryan Arcidiacono Bryn Forbes Dorian Finney-Smith Derrick Jones Damion Lee Shaq Harrison David Nwaba
