Very early look at last years metrics

[dude1394]

Metrics last year was FG% allowed. New one that I'm adding is rebounding differential. I can't find a ranking anywhere so doing a rough one.

FG% - 44.0 % (20th)
Rebounds - 48.3 (4th)
RebAgainst - 45.0 (20th)

Doing a quick delta between the top 4 rebounding teams...Most of the rest of the teams seem to be a negative delta....

Denver - +3
Lakers - +7
Mil - +9
Dallas - +3

Edit: A mixed bag about +/- deltas. Here is a better list of just the western conference. Last three numbers are the interesting one:

Own, Opp, Delta.

Our rebounding is definitely improved IMO. On both offense and defense, but especially on offense.
