Finally finished and polished up my WNBA program that calculates the adjusted offensive, defensive, and pace numbers for WNBA teams similar to how kenpom does for college basketball. You can find out how that works at www.kenpom.com but in laymens terms, efficiency is points scored/allowed per 100 posessions then is adjusted based on the level of competition, with more weight being given to recent games.
Here are the current numbers for games played through Sunday, July 8.
Team Pyth Adjusted Offensive Efficiency Adjusted Defensive Efficiency Adjusted Tempo W L Minnesota .7525 104.53 93.78 80.91 13 4 San Antonio .7301 107.60 97.64 79.27 11 5 Connecticut .6386 101.99 96.48 82.71 12 4 Los Angeles .6295 101.72 96.59 83.05 13 6 Indiana .5861 101.17 97.80 79.54 9 6 Atlanta .5599 93.73 91.55 83.77 8 9 Seattle .4879 94.83 95.28 75.83 8 9 Chicago .4583 96.08 97.66 79.80 8 7 Tulsa .3570 97.07 102.80 81.84 3 13 Washington .2596 91.65 101.52 76.21 3 12 New York .2499 89.65 99.79 79.72 6 10 Phoenix .2387 91.81 102.81 85.56 4 13
