    If the season had started on 12/26, here's what the conference standings would look like right now.

    Over basically 1/3 of the season, we have basically played to the level of a 5-seed, with the 2nd toughest schedule of any WC playoff team. That says a lot to me.

    Nice.

    I'm really interested to see how our second half of the season this year compares to last.

    Remember last night when a few people were all worried about our upcoming Strength of Schedule being .517? Huh...

    Pulled data on games from basketball reference's "team game finder", tossed it into excel, created columns I needed, and pivot-tabled the data. Took a little time, but it wasn't really difficult.

    Good analysis.

    I do think the SOS is misleading since we've had so few back to backs and so many home games.

    But we've still had a nice run.
