HAPPY DAYS !
Happy Birthday, Merry Christmas, and
Happy New Year !
Seven years ago,
December 24 1998, the eBA Basketball
Statistics Creative Analysis Site was officially open by eBA-Stats. COM.
While the history of eBA-Stats is a well-covered topic throughout the site, the
impact of the network age, which coincidently began around the same time our analysis system
was released, even today it's difficult to measure, but also something to reflect upon and
celebrate in tandem with eBA's birthday.
As we blow out 7 candles on the eBA-Stats cake, you yourselves receive our
birthday gifts, being proud to announce the upload of the 3rd. Edition of
our Global Basketball Directory, a new Questions &
Answers Corner and the renovated eBA-Guide of
Sites.
eBA-Stats. COM
wishes to all of our registered teams and members and daily guests ...
A Happy
Birthday, a very
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !
May the season bring you joy and good cheer!
...by the way, seven years ago also, on
September 27 1998, Google, with
three employees - Larry Page, Sergey Brin and Craig Silverstein, began life in a friend's
garage...

our Site. More modern and actualized with the last technologies, with more sections
(" The
Statistics", " The Rules" and "The Game"),
supporting also the insertion of tables and graphs. This corner is dedicated only to
concise and concrete Questions & Answers, not pretending to be one another discussion
group: there are very good ones in English as well in
Spanish.

FROM THE
"eBA SYSTEM"
1st. Chapter:
Statistics
"... Statistics
works on notion that measurements are REPLICATES. So, if we see a "suspicious"
looking value (high or low) it's always conceivable that it is not a replicate, but a
GROSS ERROR crept into that (and only that) measurement at the time it was taken,
resulting in the anomalous value. ..."
"... Now we determine which the Decision Limit is, that means the value to be tested
again. By example, 75% at Free Throws means our D.L. . ..."
"... If one of the players IS a poorer free-throw shooter than the others,
statistically that is an equivalent to his not being a replicate but an outlier. This is
what you test for. ..."
"... Here is another case of using statistics to compare values (free throw %) with a
D.L. (75%) and decide if there is a real cause present (a poorer capability to shoot free
throws). ..."

Basketball Analysis" by Roberto Azar

THE BEST FROM
"ASK THE STATS TEAM"
Selected Q & A Topics
Q: What are the differences between Standard & Modified Tendex? In the article of
"Formulas revision" this is not explained...
( Posted by:
prefer_ball )
A: The modified Tendex rating was created by Jon Scott based on a "per
minute" basis and a "per game" basis. The per game basis weights more
heavily toward players who play more substantial minutes and therefore reflect their worth
to the team (from the fact that the coach chose them to play the majority of the minutes).
The "per minute" basis better highlights players who may come in for short
times, but who are extremely productive while in game.
Standard Tendex Rating=
{[ Points + Rebounds + Assists + Steals + Blocks - Turnovers
- Missed Field Goals - Missed Free Throws ]
/ Minutes / Game Pace }
Modified Tendex=
{[ Points + Rebounds + 1.25 * Assists + 1.25 * Steals + Blocks
- 1.25 * Turnovers - Missed Field Goals -
( Missed Free Throws / 2 ) - ( Personal Fouls / 2 ) ]
/ Minutes / Game Pace }
The "Game Pace" is a factor which takes into account the fact that some
teams play at a faster pace than others, and therefore individual statistics may be padded
for players on those teams that do play at a faster pace.

From the eBA RESOURCES
Web Sites eBA Guide
From the very beginning of our site, on December 1998, first days of Google's Dance, we
realized that the links and reference section is among the most important and popular
parts of the site, and, because of this, we will constantly be trying to improve it. With
a limited quantity of sections in the first editions, now you can browse the 12 sections
and 40 categories listed there, or, if you're having trouble finding something, try the
Google Search form at each page.
We are also in the process of gradually merging our links section with the reference
section, so that you can find everything you're looking for in one place. The best and
exceptional sites of the Web are being framed and highlighted as Recommended by eBA
Stats. The Google
Popularity Page Rank is offered by eBA Stats. COM at each link to easily know PageRank the
pages you want to visit. Another section of good sites are bolded an underlined, meanwhile
the rest of the sites, the old or not updated ones, are being deleted or are included as
"Another Sites", the entrance there is under your responsibility. The broken
links are processed at the bottom of each links page, waiting for someone to tell us the
new web address. This is the reason because the eBA Links Section gave place to the
updated Web Sites eBA
Guide at your service.
