Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy. "Quinn the Eskimo" - Bob Dylan
← Efficiency

Offensive Efficiency

Points scored per 100 possessions.

100 × season points scored ÷ season possessions. Possessions aren't in the box score, so they're estimated as FGA − OffReb + TO + 0.475×FTA (the standard estimator). Dividing by possessions instead of games removes tempo: a fast team piles up points by playing more possessions, not necessarily by using them well.
