Game Flow / Score Difference – Determine scoring streaks by your team and by your opponent, and the implications. 

This is how a Top 10 men’s college team (blue dots) was upset: the opponent (red dots) went on 3 streaks covering 6 minutes, for a 30-0 run, resulting in a 1-point victory for the underdog.

Relationship of Game Tempo to Points per Possession – The blue team below has a decided speed advantage. Each dot represents a game played. Blue points are the “focus team” and orange dots are the opponent’s. Note that the “points per possession” (PPP) trendline increases dramatically for the blue team as the tempo increases. Thus, in a typical game, they can maximize their advantage (increase the score difference in a game) by picking up the pace.
