Coverage and method

Pelicans: 28 regular-season games with a final score, excluding simulations.

Kings: 25 regular-season games with a final score, excluding simulations.

Each axis uses its own complete box-score sample. Percentiles start at 5 games per team and require at least two eligible teams in the same league and season.

P75 means a value above roughly three quarters of eligible team values. Ties share the midpoint percentile. Identical values all receive P50. This describes style, not performance.

Three-point attempt rate measures shot choices: three-point attempts divided by all field-goal attempts. Scoring share measures points produced; it also reflects shooting success.

Scoring shares divide recorded points of each type by total points in the same games; three-pointers count for three points. These shares overlap and do not add up to 100%. Assists per field goal uses total assists divided by made field goals in the same games.

Offensive rebounding rate measures the share of available offensive rebounds recovered. It is distinct from points scored on second chances and does not establish a deliberate rebounding tactic.

Pace is estimated possessions per game from complete paired box scores. It does not assume game duration or exclude unrecorded overtime.

Closest profiles use 8 equally weighted standardized dimensions among complete 10-indicator profiles. Three-point attempt rate replaces three-point scoring share; offensive rebounding rate replaces second-chance points. Constant dimensions do not distinguish profiles; exact ties are retained. Proximity does not mean identical tactics.

Highlighted: the better value of each line (fewer points allowed and turnovers is better). A tie highlights nothing. Samples: 28 and 25 box scores.
