Shooting Fouls Committed in the NBA in 2008-09

Simple question: which players committed the most shooting fouls last season?
As with most of fringe stats I tried Google first and results were disappointing: there’s nothing on this topic!

IMHO that’s inexcusable so this week I’ll focus on different types of fouls drawn and committed in the last 5 years… which means light schedule didn’t quite work out because there was simply too much information to wait [although I will still publish data-heavy posts with any analysis about it planned for later].

All data about fouls are based on play-by-play data from ESPN.com/NBA — here’s a random example.
The rest is from www.basketball-reference.com where: “TOT” = someone played for multiple teams.

BTW, I intentionally missed offensive fouls and flagrant fouls because I’ve covered them earlier and you can check data for different seasons: 2010-11, 2009-10, 2007-08 and 2006-07.

Without further ado, here’s a full list of three different type of fouls committed in the NBA in 2008-09:

Points Scored Off Turnovers in Last 3 NBA Playoffs

Every typical boxscore on ESPN has a note for each team labeled “Team TO ( points off )”.
First part of it, turnovers, is obvious and can be easily found but when you Google second part, points scored off turnovers for each team, you will find definitions and questions where can someone find it.
Well, from now… in a typical Weak Side Awareness’ style… on this blog… ;-)

You can also check data from last 3 regular seasons: 2010-11, 2009-10 and 2008-09.

BTW, It’s a final instalment of this week’s light schedule.
Next week will be another marginal stat, probably something about fouls.

Here’s a list of Points Scored Off Turnovers For and Against for Every Team in the Last 3 NBA Playoffs:
