We're introducing a new team-level statistic here today: the Opponent-Adjusted Rating ("OAR") — which takes each each game's Offensive and Defensive Rating and . This stat is used for gauging a team's true offensive and defensive efficiencies, and for finding trends that are otherwise hard to see.
For each game, we generate an "Offensive OAR" and a "Defensive OAR." We also look at the season's trends for both these stats, as well as the "Net OAR" for each game and the NetOAR running average.
