APBRmetrics


APBRmetrics is the analysis of basketball through objective evidence, especially basketball statistics. APBRmetrics is a cousin to the study of baseball statistics, known as Sabermetrics, and similarly takes its name from the acronym APBR, which stands for the Association for Professional Basketball Research. The phrase may be awkward (just think "basketball metrics" or "basketball measurements") but the work being done is giving teams and fans more and better tools to understand what is happening in the game of hoops.
