NBA Plays Update

So the Monte Carlo Simulation is taking me forever to do in excel because I ran into a few roadblocks. Hopefully I’ll be up and running soon.
Hold on Basketball Plays
Jan 12th
I’m going to put a temporary hold (about 1 week) on my basketball plays for this year. I’m going to try and use a monte carlo simulation found in Mathletics, but keep the essential parts the system the same. It should take me about a week to get it up and running and we’ll see how that works.
If there are some intriguing plays I’ll of course post them so stay tuned.
