Thanks. You have to factor in our style of play when analyzing this numbers. We're primarily a 1/2 court team that takes up most of the 24 second clock each possession....which means less possessions and less points scored. But if you looked at points/possession, I think we'd be slightly better (anyone have this info? pretty obscure stat!).
That also explains why our points against is low compared to most of the league. It's easier to score more against a fast breaking/early offense team because you are getting the ball back more. I don't think we were the 6th best defensive team last year. In fact, in the miami series, there were many times we couldn't get stops when we wanted to.
