Playing style

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

A rename follows the league’s verified aliases. A team change keeps only that GM’s recorded game sides. A current team or an unrecorded past identity cannot fill a gap.

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.

These are the currently recorded facts for each season, not snapshots of what was known at an earlier date. Cancelled seasons in another league remain in that league’s career.
