For the Warriors, the Magic Number is 20.

I decided to analyze the Golden State Warriors' offensive game on my data-driven sports blog, Fanvana. I broke my analysis down into two parts. In the first part, I try to connect my observations as a fan to statistical conclusions derived from simple end game box score stats. Through this analysis, I found that the Warriors' strongest signal for a loss was having 20 or fewer assists. Though this conclusion is not very predictive (prior to tip off), it provided an interesting jumping off point for me to delve deeper into individual player performances in part two. Let me know what you think!
