MatterOfStats 2014 : Team Dashboard for Round 21
/It's been a while since we looked at the rank correlations between team competition ladder positions and the various Team Dashboard metrics, so this week I thought it timely to do just that.
These rank correlations with ladder positions are as follows:
- With Team Scoring Shot Creation: +0.84
- With Team Scoring Shot Concession (ranked lowest to highest): +0.78
- With Team Scoring Shot Conversion: +0.11
- With Team Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion (ranked lowest to highest): +0.52
- With Team Q1 Performances: +0.83
- With Team Q2 Performances: +0.71
- With Team Q3 Performances: +0.58
- With Team Q4 Performances: +0.78
In summary then, this season has been less about Scoring Shot Conversion than it has been about generating (and preventing) Scoring Shots. Also, Q3 has not been the "Championship Quarter" so far this season, Q1 and Q4 both being far more important.
