Mavericks vs Thunder ADS 12/27/10

Here is a new feature we want to get going here on a more regular basis. It is called ADS or average shot per distance where we try to show how well the Mavs are getting to the rim and keeping the opponents from the rim.

Thanks to some interns who are helping tabulate the numbers, we are going to try to keep game-by-game and season totals as we go. But this is the first one - Bob

Here are you ADS charts for the game last night, as you may notice a few things different. I chose to just remove the inactive and the players that had zero play time for size purpose. If a player has 0/0 such as Haywood this means that he had playing time, but took zero shots.

Let us know what you think, do you like the format of ADS, did you like having the inactives in the charts? If you have any thought please let us know so we can make your Dallas Mavericks expeience that much better.

Thanks to Heath Huston for gathering the data.
