This example converts raw NBA JSON game logs into a single CSV file, first showing the transformation of nested statistics into flat, queryable rows. It reads JSON files for each season and measure type, extracting headers and parameters to build team-level records with prefixed column names like `pace_*` or `def_rating_*`. The script uses the CoffeeScript language and the Node.js `fs` and `csv` libraries, with the `csv().to.path` API to write the output. It also merges team abbreviations from a separate CSV, keying each row by team ID and season.

Sync NBA team data from stats.nba.com

A shell script named `syncteams.sh` synchronizes NBA team statistics from the stats.nba.com API by iterating over seasons from 1996–97 through 2013–14. For each season, it fetches six JSON files—Base, Advanced, Misc, Four Factors, Scoring, and Opponent—using `curl` with a URL that specifies parameters like `MeasureType`, `PerMode=Totals`, and `rowsPerPage=30`. The script checks for existing files to avoid redundant downloads, re-fetching only the latest season (2013–14) each run. Data is stored in a `data/teams/` directory organized by season, with filenames lowercased from the stat type.

Transforming data of Historical NBA Performance

This example displays historical average winning percentages for NBA teams, computed from a CSV dataset and rendered as a JSON array. The visualization uses D3 v7’s `flatRollup` and `sum` functions to aggregate win percentages per team across all seasons. After fetching the data via a URL, `csvParse` converts the CSV string into objects. The computed results are output as formatted text inside a `<pre>` element, demonstrating a straightforward data-transformation pipeline without additional chart rendering.

Basketball Player Stats CSV Data - Loading and Parsing

This example demonstrates loading a CSV file of basketball player statistics per season and reporting its basic size and structure. After fetching the remote dataset using `d3.csv`, it displays the file size in kilobytes, the total number of data rows, and the count of columns in a large text block. The visualization uses D3 v5’s `d3.csv` parsing method and `d3.csvFormat` to measure the loaded data, with commented alternatives showing `fetch` and `d3.csvParse` for comparison.

NBA All-Stars from 2000-2016

This example prints a plain-text summary of a dataset listing NBA All-Stars from 2000 to 2016. It displays the row count, column count, and file size in kilobytes, followed by the first ten rows of data as formatted JSON. Built with D3 v5, the visualization uses the `select`, `csv`, and `csvFormat` functions to fetch and process the CSV file from an external URL, then appends the results to the page via `body.append`. The data originates from basketball.realgm.com, as credited in the README.

Generate graphs from NBA data

The visualization generates two bar charts from NBA team statistics, each plotting point differentials against a baseline. The first chart displays each team’s overall point spread, while the second groups the same differentials into “Above 500” and “Below 500” categories for comparison. Using pandas for data manipulation and matplotlib for plotting, the code reads CSV files, sorts teams by differential, and renders bar charts with custom colors and axis labels. The output is saved as PNG images at 150 DPI, with data sourced from stats.nba.com.

Loading Boston Celtics Shot Log Data from 2014-2015 Season

This example loads Boston Celtics shot log data from the 2014-2015 NBA season and displays the raw parsed dataset as a JSON-formatted text block. It uses `d3.csvParse` to convert a CSV file fetched from a GitHub gist, then coerces quantitative fields like `SHOT_DIST`, `PTS`, and `CLOSE_DEF_DIST` to numbers before rendering them. The visualization demonstrates a simple data-loading pipeline with `fetch`, `select`, and `join`, showing either a loading state or the full array of shot records.

Loading and Parsing NBA Player State CSV Data

This example demonstrates how to load and parse a CSV file containing NBA player statistics. It displays the file’s size in kilobytes, the number of data rows, and the number of columns within a large text element on a black background. Using the `d3.csv` method from the D3 v5 library, the program fetches the dataset from a remote URL and then applies `d3.csvFormat` to calculate the byte size. The interface provides a minimal, textual summary of the structured data source.

Gist 2d7133b7a34afa5c0ddb698237987830

This example visualizes NHL team performance metrics from a JSON dataset of game statistics, plotting each team's goals for and against across multiple games. It uses D3.js to render a scatterplot with team abbreviations as labels, positioning points based on goalsFor and goalsAgainst values while encoding win/loss records through point color. The visualization leverages d3.scalePoint for axes, d3.forceSimulation for label collision avoidance, and Canvas rendering to display all team data points from the standings.json file.
