It appears there isn't any Hot Spots stats this season. A new site called Hoop Data, mightn't have the nice graphics , but they've made the numbers available. Player Shot Locations: http://hoopdata.com/shotstats.aspx They've also just put up the stats for Opposition Shot Locations: http://hoopdata.com/oteamshotlocs.aspx Below are per game averages
Hoop Data also shows charges, which can't be found elsewhere (unless you want to pour through the ESPN play by plays). Area of concern for Rockets is field goal defense at the rim. As I said in another thread in the GARM, poor defensive rebounding is likely a big reason for this: Code: [B]year FG% (rank)[/B] --------------------- 06/07 53.6% (1) 07/08 54.6% (1) 08/09 58.7% (7) [B]09/10 64.4% (24)[/B]
There's only so much you can do when your front line is a foot shorter than the other team's. Thanks for the info guys.
Yep, as good a defender as Chuck Hayes is, losing Yao is a big detriment to interior defense and defensive rebounding.
