Not sure October and February are statistically significant, and if they're not, then the Blazers offense has gotten better each month.
October definitely doesn't count; we played two weeks and Phoenix basically destroys any averages in that small of a sample size. February is also basically three weeks long, and also not even fucking done yet.
I'd venture to say every team's defense slows down before the allstar break...ET nursing a calf injury didn't help our defense because he's one of our better defenders at every position.....ET nursing a calf injury helped our offense because he's not a great shooter.
Teams trying to get better before the trade deadline also play the bench more and try to build trade value or get them some burn before the rotation slims down to 9 players going into the playoffs
Apparently Offense is equally hard. It's like playing basketball is hard work, and you can only do your best out there on the court.
Depends on your definition for each, since you are comparing two skills that aren't related. How many elite unicyclists compared to elite bagpipers are there?
Not suprising, the amount of games we play and our key players work rates. Seriously, Dame and Steve Austin have a lot in common. Dude has one of the highest usage rates in the league.
