In Episode 15 of The Help Side Basketball Coaching Strategy and Analytics podcast we start by talking about the NBA playoffs up to this point. We look back at the Warrior's series vs the Rockets and Blazers as well as the just concluded series between the Bucks and Raptors. We then do a quick preview on the NBA finals. In the analytic section we talk about charting defense. Most teams chart and look at offensive numbers, but I haven't found a lot on charting how good players are defensively. We talk about how we could do this to get a better idea of who are better defensive players are. In the strategy session, we talk about charting hustle points and giving an award for it at the end of the year. We also talk about how players knowing that they are being charted, and competing for a hustle award, affects how they play, knowing that those things are being documented.
