Thanks, Tanya!! 🙌

Thanks, Tanya!

Yea — if you were to sort this group by drive stop rate (with total drives defended as the denominator), Amen Thompson would be at the top.

we're giving a defender credit for a "drive stop" when he's the primary defender on a drive and the ball handler he’s guarding turns the ball over, misses a shot, or passes without creating a shot for one of his teammates.

They don’t even let drives get started.

Yea - that’s true. Standing hip height vs. hip height defending drives would be better.

Yea - that would work! I was thinking about just filtering to x=0, but FT release would be better.

Yea - head height is normal standing height and hip height is when they are defending a drive (usually in a defensive stance, presumably). I could have made that a bit more clear with the stick figures.

re. 2: Yea - I thought about that, too, because I’m a long legs/short torso guy 😂 probably a good idea
