Also, /u/ca1294 made a study of the impact of playing at home on a team's rating. This is for all seasons from 2000-01 forward. OP and an explanation of the method are here https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/6zfpjx/oc_2350_which_teams_have_the_strongest_regular/


When you look at the other teams next to the Celtics, this is an interesting chart.

Tp and thanks.

In the 90s, the Nets considered changing their name New Jersey Swamp Dragons. (It was Spoelstra's idea.)

Man, that Blazers team was so much fun. One of my favourite teams of all time.

Sabonis (high post & low post passing) and Kenny Anderson (dribble penetration, PnRs, transition) were incredible together. The ball movement was beautiful. Sheed and Uncle Cliffy at forward. Size, defense, athleticism. Both had inside-outside games. Matchup nigthmares in the frontcourt with Sabonis. And Isaiah Rider as the crazy gunslinger capable of going off on anyone.

Cool squad. Well rounded team.

I wish they would've kept that team together. 1 year wasn't enough.
