Tangent to the Wordle tool posted. Is PerThirtySix a reference to FiveThirtyEight? The latter must be one of the most well-known brands in the sports analytics space. Or is 36 an important number in sports?
Yes. NBA games are 48 minutes in regulation. No one plays the full 48 minutes, but a lot of players (starters mainly) do play 36 minutes. So, 36 minutes has become a common time period of production time used for analytics in the NBA.
