To measure a team's defensive aggressiveness, look at its steal total.

However, defensive aggression does not always translate into defensive greatness. Against a poor offensive team you can average a high number of steals (overplaying passing lanes, e.g.) without "aggression". So, when you look at the steals, have an account of the FORCED STEALS ( you can read a very good analysis of Forced Steals at eBA System Area[/URL] ) and the opponent TO without defensive "participation".

You must look at the eBA System for the discussion about steals and non-steal forced turnovers. The eBA System learns us that good examples of non-steal forced turnovers include pressuring an offensive player into traveling, a double dribble, a bad pass, or drawing a charge.



So in the eBA Basketball Statistics Analysis you receive a certain player as the is key to team's success in forcing turnovers being responsible for a certain number of forced turnovers: steals plus non-steal forced turnovers per 40/48 minutes. The individual and team's number and percentage of non-steal forced turnovers give you an excellent index of defensive aggressiveness.
