Autor Arilova A. Randrianasolo
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 aug 2021
This book provides empirical evidence and statistical analyses to uncover answers to some of the most debated questions in the NBA.

This book provides some statistics-backed perspectives to some of these debates that are specific to the NBA.

Was LeBron snubbed of an MVP in the 2010-2011 season? Why has the G.O.A.T. debate turned into LeBron vs. Jordan….Did Kobe get overlooked? How come Klay Thompson didn’t get All-NBA honors in the 2018-2019 season? This book explores these questions and many more with empirical evidence.
