The Numbers Crunch: Wizards destroyed by the Cavaliers

I kinda want to just ignore this one. Dump it in the memory hole and delete it from memory. But writing these pieces is something of a ritual — a tradition? — and rituals/traditions can be worthwhile.

The Washington Wizards entered last night’s game 30th in strength of schedule adjusted scoring margin, 30th in offensive rating (points scored per 100 possessions), and 30th in defensive rating (points allowed per 100 possessions). Their opponent, the Cleveland Cavaliers, ranked 4th, 2nd and 6th respectively in those categories.

As would be expected, the Cavaliers delivered a thorough stomping.
