rNBA

This is a repo to house code for parsing NBA data, inclduing computing time-series ELO scores, box scores, team contribution, etc. I may one day use this data to make a Bayesian forecasting model for NBA games.... but for now, it's more of a learning tool than anything.

Data in the data/ directory:

• Scores for every game played in the /data/schedules directory, which is organized by season.
• Player box scores and play-by-play data for every game ever, in the data/game data directory, organized by game. This data is stored in the .Rdata format, due to having lists of data frames for each game in each season.

Data in the output/ directory:

• NOT COMMITTED -- files too big (92+mb)
