Cleveland and Memphis definitely jump out with their Net ratings in the last 15, as do the Spurs.
Also impressive to be the #2 offense in that period with no player averaging more than 18 points.
In the end, wins matter, but this is still impressive nonetheless. I don’t recall a treadmill team ever making marks this high during a season, but maybe I’m wrong. Let’s see if they keep it up.

Really cool. Freakin COVID. Gonna be herky jerky from here out. Also, I Feel if we hadn’t had Jak go down for that prolonged stretch the team would be better situated
Portland trailblazing a path to the bottom. What happened to that Portland fanboy who used to post on here? All crickets now
stop posting analytics..........i hate analytics/per stats ish it is fooking for nerds..........just watch the fooking game with your eyes no plus minus nerd stat tells real story
somebody tell golden state they should be losing more games
This is for last 15 games only, where the team has truly turned a corner. If things stay relatively at this level, I fully expect the Spurs to make a playoffs, not even the play-in. But too many variables, not to mention Covid.
You are a champion at posting. You’ve got to be the Jake Paul of this board. I know you aren’t as dumb as the posts you write, but you may fool a lot of folks. Gotta give you props for coming up with this personality and staying in character for so long.
I still think we are a better team now than what we were early on.
Early on alot of guys were struggling; White,Walker,Keldon, plus the 3 pt shooting. But now these guys are playing well and our 3 pt shooting is back
Plus we also missed Jakob, who while other don't really see how importamt he is, was a big lost. we went 2-5 or something when he was out.
Hopefully DJ is back soon, as he is missed.
The elevation of Walker, Keldon's shooting, Poeltl's return, have all had a big impact. Not sure if those first two can keep up. I still think this team goes as far as White. If he sucks or plays well, the team follows.
I’m rather impressed the more this team settles with the rotation.
But let’s revisit in the next two weeks. This coming road trip could either be or victorious, with how this team thrives against better teams.
how could spurs be #2 without Derozan tho???
I mean if you don't like that don't read it.
I guess DD did his job of bringing up the young guys. It's a natural evolution.
We're in the top right corner which is always good in these type of analytical graphs. And being #2 offense is shocking.
DeMar has raised Chicago to 6th in offensive efficiency.
If they are able to play the "beautiful game" offense with ball movement and player movement, fast breaks off of defense, and getting to the FT line, they are not only fun to watch but have a pretty good chance at some wins. If they other team makes shots and they are always taking the ball out of the net, they don't have the opportunity to get into a passing offense as often and start to get into an iso game. (ref: White in last Utah game) They are gonna lose a lot of those.
All in all, they are making progress as the best rotations become more apparent and new guys get worked into the offenseive and defensive systems. A great example of this is the emergence of Jock into a second team center over Drew Ewing. And the shooting improvement of KJ is so unreal that we can't expect it to continue, but love it while it lasts because it makes him useful despite his defensive problems.
This is cool and all, but I wouldn't read much into this given the small sample size and randomness of covid over the last couple of weeks. The Spurs numbers, especially offensively, are skewed by the compe ion -- Portland, Sac, Charlotte are all in the bottom part of that defensive statistic and there's no telling how much that 40 point meaningless blowout of Detroit factored into all of this.
Demar was a good dude and a professional, but lets not kid ourselves. He is what he is & unfortunately, he's not someone who is going to carry a team to a Championship. He can be a contributor to winning but not someone who really moves the needle. What's tough is him needing the ball in his hands most of the time to be effective. Chicago is in for a rude awakening when the playoffs get here. Good thing Lavine is there to take the big shots, especially 3 pointers.
So everyone should stop posting things you don’t understand? Might as well hang out on an empty forum by yourself.
Who knew Lebron's super team would be sucking ass while a star-less Cleveland would be there.
Yes, because when I want content with hard facts, quality substance and in-depth critical thinking, the first thing I look for is a post by playblair.
We 14-19 though.
We started 4-13.
I'd say they have made significant improvement over the course of the season.
Spurs have a 7th ranked strength of schedule left toughest games warriors 3 games, bulls 2, nets 2, utah 1, suns 2, heat 2
