@MAdamsStatGuy I know this is a joke, of course, but aren’t you actually still a carolina fan?

I disagree. UNC is on a perfect trajectory and should trust the process. #ExtendHubert
Smith Center South@SmithCenterUNC

Right on target. The decision making regarding #UNC athletics is problematic. Deciding to relocate the basketball arena to Carolina North without the support of Roy Williams, Tyler Hansbrough and many others is problematic. Not doing complete due diligence on renovating the Smith Center is problematic. Inflating the cost of Smith Center renovation and roof repair is problematic. Potentially eliminating the extra 2,000 student tickets for the Duke game in future relocation plans is problematic. Not dealing directly with legacy ticket holders is problematic.

Reporters call him contemptuous. His teammates call him the most genuine superstar ever. From $8k tips for housekeepers to gifting a teammate the bracelet off his wrist, here is the side of Russell Westbrook that he hides from fans and media: sportingnews.com/us/nba/sacrame…

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander just passed Wilt Chamberlain for most consecutive games with 20+ points. 127 games. It's a longer streak than the next *10* highest active streaks stacked end to end. Here are my favorite SGA streak facts: sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/th…

While we're getting weird with it here are the top outlier high scores in NBA history based on that player's average and SD. Normality be damned, we're having some fun here. Mario West!!!

Also shout out to the analytics gatekeepers out here. Smarter widespread discourse starts with making math more accessible. Worse than guesswork? Discrediting sophisticated nuance because it isn’t perfect. That attitude is exactly why people hate the nerds (I’m also a nerd)

For the math peeps: - No, scoring points in an NBA isn't a perfectly normal distribution. - Yes, events like points in an NBA game are more susceptible to extreme outliers on the high side. - Yes, external factors & circumstance impact results. Here are all of Bam's games.

Bam Adebayo broke math. His 83-point game was 8.5 standard deviations above his career average (or ~1 in 53 quadrillion) Based on career avgs, its like: Patrick Mahomes passing for 915 yards Justin Verlander throwing 214 pitches in a start Wilt Chamberlain grabbing 79 rebounds

@Brett_A_Taylor I was thinking about this earlier. Baseball is kind of tough because you need a counting stat high and/or non-zero enough (or maybe not?!). total bases in a game by Bonds? Or strikeouts by Roger Clemens?

@PlusEVAnalytics lol of course not. It’s Twitter not an academic paper submitted for the Sloan conference. 🤷‍♂️

If you remove free throws from everyone, Bam Adebayo's night would rank 73rd all-time. Most points in single game 1. Wilt 100 2. Bam 83 3. Kobe 81 Most points without free throws 1. Wilt 72 (100-pt game) 2. Kobe 63 (81-pt game) 3. Wilt 62 (78-pt game) -- T-73. Bam 48

101 active players had a higher career-high than Bam Adebayo entering Tuesday. Here are all 101 of them. (And why if you ranked the players most likely to score 83, Bam might even be lower than 102nd.) sportingnews.com/us/nba/miami-h…

Bam Adebayo (36-43) shattered the all-time record for most free throws and FT attempts in a game. Previous record for FT made was 28, shared by Wilt (in the 100-pt game) and Adrian Dantley. Previous record for FT attempts was 39, held by Dwight Howard.
