Marquette's new Director of Video and Analytics spoke to us about his past with Shaka, his current role and why lineup data can do more harm than good.

Very interesting. I'm curious how exactly they control for lucky three point shots when doing lineup based stats.

I didn't ask how they do it internally, but you can actually do a bit of that yourself using Hoop-Explorer. He has a "luck" button that adjusts 3-points percentage up or down to about average.

So without a luck adjustment the MU 5 of Tk/Kam/Jop/OMax/Oso had an Adj DRating of 88.7 points/100 poss. Meaning they were an elite defensive squad. But that's because opponents shot 24% in this 114 possession sample. If you adjust for "luck" the Adj D Rating goes down to 96.6 pts/100.

https://hoop-explorer.com/LineupAnalyzer?baseQuery=&filter=&filterGarbage=true&gender=Men&lineupLuck=true&maxRank=400&maxTableSize=50&minPoss=5&minRank=0&sortBy=desc%3Aoff_poss&team=Marquette&year=2022%2F23&

Obvi there will be some teams and lineups that are better than others at contesting 3s, but for the most part, makes sense to revert to the average.
