This says that 1.0 Eastern teams, and 0.8 Western teams, per season, go from not making the playoffs on January 20th, to making it by the end of the year.



The NBA season is over ... (no, really!)

Read this somewhere:
Analysis of our record against teams above .500.
Jazz are 8-13 against teams above .500 (all the records I've listed are against above .500 teams).

Cavs (12-7): 1-0
Celtics (11-12): 0-2
Clippers (10-12): 0-1
Grizzlies (13-12): 1-3
Hawks (9-8): 2-0
Pacers (7-9): 1-0
Raptors (10-12): 0-2
Rockets (11-13): 1-1
Spurs (11-7): 1-1
Thunder (11-14): 1-1
Warriors (17-5): 0-2
Washington (8-12): have not played yet.

Honestly, the only thing that worries me about this information is if we have to play Memphis in the first round.

Interesting that they've already finished a 4 game season series with Memphis.

I wonder if there's ever been a team that finished a 4 game season series by December of one year, and didn't start the other one until March of next year.

I've seen some teams not start series until March, but don't remember what the schedule was like the year before.

On baseball-reference, you can see how a team's done against every other team that it plays, on the main team site.

I wish it was there on basketball-reference.

You don't? I thought you had these things memorized? (It's a compliment, not a dig at being a sports nerd.)
