    Interesting read. . Cool that we had the highest offensive rebound to crash/retreat ratio in the data (thanks omer!)

    This data doesn't take team tendency into account though. Obviously crashing against a face effective transition team like miami would be more costly if failed, negating the benefit over setting up defense.

    However against a team like new orleans or nyk (some of the slowest 'halfcourt' teams) this studies findings hold true
