Premium Member mrhonline Posted March 20, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 A very intriguing discussion of the use of analytics in sports. http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=5004532 I can't help but cringe when I think of teams like Dallas tempting Smith to take that 18 footer when Cuban mentions "certain teams."

TheNorthCydeRises Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Very interesting convo, calling this the "geekification of sports". That's a good way to describe all of these stats that are used to evaluate what the plaers are doing on the court. Mark Cuban ( 24:40 ) - "Every team has the legendary story about the guys who can't remember plays. You think it'd be one of the most simplest things in the world to remember a play coming out of a huddle . . after a timeout. You'd be shocked how ofter it happens where the guys don't remember the plays." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
