Thanks! Happy to help...


You may have been already, but you can extrapolate those numbers out to make educated guess-analysis of each 4 minute section

For instance, lets say its an ideal VT game and there are 65 possessions. Thats 6.5 possessions per 4 minute section. So if VT has 7 points in a 4 minute section then theyre pretty on-pace. If theyre giving up more than 6 points then theyre behind pace. So the scoring should look like:

Under 16 TO - 7 to 6
Under 12 TO - 14 to 12
Under 8 TO - 21 to 18
Under 4 TO - 28 to 24
Halftime - 35 to 30

Under 16 TO - 42 to 36
Under 12 TO - 49 to 42
Under 8 TO - 56 to 48
Under 4 TO - 63 to 54
Final - 70 to 60

You can bet that it doesnt perfectly work out like that, and as the possessions get lower, the scoring gets tighter. Then inevitably theres fouling at the end for one team that can skew some of it.

Last night was a 58 possession game and they scored 62, so thats pretty close to ideal. UVA had 60 possessions and scored 53, thats in the positive for being ideal
