NBA 2019-2020: POST-TRADE DEADLINE

Categories:

Thoughts

by Law Murray

The 2019-20 NBA season was suspended temporarily after the conclusion of games that started on March 11. At that time, teams played between 63 and 67 games. This split usually accounts for splits between games 49-64; the Los Angeles Lakers and San Antonio Spurs fell a game short.

With the season on indefinite hiatus, this split will take the records from games 49-67, as well as data from February 2 through March 11 (asterisks placed on teams that would make the postseason if only six teams made it per conference): 

 

As I did for the START, OLD YEAR, and ALL-STAR BREAK/MIDSEASON reviews, I will run through each team’s offensive, defensive, and net rankings (efficiency); the time period here will be from February 2 through March 11. I’ll also add in the most-used lineup during that time span, with net efficiency and minutes played.

This month, I’ll be highlighting players in the most-used lineups that did not start the 2019-2020 season with the team they are currently on.

Here are the offensive and defensive efficiency rankings for the entire season through March 11 all in one place:

  • Offensive, defensive, and net efficiency rankings through March 11, 2020. (NBA.com/Stats)
  • Offensive, defensive, and net efficiency rankings through March 11, 2020. (NBA.com/Stats)
  • Offensive, defensive, and net efficiency rankings through March 11, 2020. (NBA.com/Stats)
