The best resources for information on basketball are listed below:
Official rules of the NBA, along with court dimensions. | |
Massey Ratings | Ken Massey calculates team ratings for college and pro basketball, as well as making predictions. Ken Massey is prominent because his method is used in the BCS College Football ratings. |
Association for Professional Basketball Research | The APBR is a site with a lot of historical information about basketball. It is a good site for answering and asking questions. (They have more time than I have.) |
APBR Discussion Group | This is a good place to ask questions about the history of the game. The people here are very responsive. |
APBR Analysis Discussion Group | This is the more analytical arm of the APBR, discussing numbers a bit more than the APBR. A good place to ask questions. |
Doug Steele's NBA Stats | Doug updates his stats daily. You can also have him send you boxscores on a daily basis. Occasional minor errors, but a great service. |
Sportsline's NBA Coverage | Their coverage is the easiest to work with and probably the most complete in terms of stats and info. Their play-by-play info is invaluable for some basketball research. |
