In pro basketball today, it's good to be a stathead. Coaches use stats
to decide who should be in the lineup each game, how defend against each
opponent, and when to send in a sub. Players use stats to train and
prepare and to get an edge after the opening tip. And sports reporters
rely on data to describe the games. Today's hoops fans, who always want
to be in the know, get more out of the action by joining the ranks of
the statheads.
