05 / Notes
WHAT THE LOG SAYS
RECORD
01
12-18
SEA finished 12-18, 11th in the league by wins.
A 40.0% win rate over 30 games, outscoring opponents by -5.5 points a night. Their net rating of -7.2 ranks 12th, and the point margin says that record was worth 9.6 wins.
CONTEXT
02
-4.3
SEA rate 12th on the Simple Rating System.
Margin alone would put them at -5.5 points a game; the schedule they played rated 0.6, the 4th hardest in the league over the 29 games whose opponent is known. The two together rate them at -4.3, and they disagree with the raw margin by 1.2 points.
EFFICIENCY
03
129.7 / 136.8
SEA scored 129.7 and conceded 136.8 points per 100 possessions.
Offence ranks 11th, defence 13th — and on defence lower is better. Across 2,290 possessions at a pace of 76.3, that is a net rating of -7.2.
MARIUS
04
59.3
SEA scored 59.3 on the MARIUS Score.
Half of that is true shooting (64.2%), 30% is assists per game (25.1 — 12th in the league) and 20% is ball security (7.1 turnovers a game, 3rd — where lower is better).
MARIUS
05
9.3%
SEA gave the ball away on 9.3% of their possessions.
Basketball-Reference's definition puts the turnover rate at 8.5% of plays used — 7.1 turnovers per game. Both are shown because they answer slightly different questions: one is per possession, the other per play.
ANOMALY
06
108-65
Their best night was a 108-65 win against DCS.
Game 4, a net rating of 56.8 on 75.6 possessions. They made 47 of 78 shots and pulled in 47 rebounds. It came on the road.
ANOMALY
07
87-124
Their worst night was a 87-124 loss against TOR.
Game 27, a net rating of -51.2. They turned the ball over 4 times and gave up 50 points in the paint.
RECORD
08
5/6
Their longest winning run was 5 games; the longest losing run 6.
Read off the game log in order, so a streak is a real sequence of results rather than a count of wins. They also played 6 games decided by five points or fewer (20.0%) and 12 decided by twenty or more (40.0%).
RECORD
09
7-8
At home SEA went 7-8; on the road 5-10.
46.7% of home games won against 33.3% away. Their home net rating was -10.7 and their away net rating -3.4 — the same team, two different levels.
CONTEXT
10
-5.9
SEA's scoring margin was -8.4 a game at home and -2.5 on the road.
That is a home-court edge of -5.9 points a game. Across the league the host outscores the visitor by -1.4, so the venue is doing less for them than it does for the average team.
STYLE
11
25.8
SEA's performance swung 25.8 net rating points between games.
The standard deviation of their per-game net rating, across 29 games with a box score. The league's steadiest side sits near 18.8; the wildest near 33.6.
CONTRACT
12
50.0%
Only 50.0% of SEA's $144.0M payroll can be matched to a season line.
$72.0M is paid to players the stats export has no production for — usually new signings. No value figure can be computed for those deals, so the roster's efficiency is only partly knowable.
