Evolution of the NBA Part 1 with Seth Akabas — Statistical Trends - a podcast by Lev Akabas

My dad joins me to explain the ways in which the NBA of his youth, the 1970s, differed from that of the 2010s (0:55). Then we try to make sense of a few league-wide statistical trends spanning the past several decades, including increased three-point shooting (8:15), increased pace (12:49), decreased free-throw rates (17:15), decreased playing time for superstars (19:40), and more.
