My friend and co-worker @calvinmfloyd just released the grobblR R package on CRAN. We've been using it internally at the Kings for a while to create our PDF reports and I'm excited that now everyone gets the chance to try it out!

In advance of our #NESSIS poster presentation on Home Court Advantages for NCAA Statistics, @LukeBornn, @pachowwhite, @chuancong, and I have posted the full paper on arXiv. We examine home/away/neutral differences, scorekeeper and referee biases and more! arxiv.org/pdf/1909.04817…
My guy right here! Big congrats to Cole!
Excited to launch a web app I've been working on: mvanbommel.shinyapps.io/SacCrimeData The app provides an interactive visualization of the open data set for Sacramento's police dispatch data. Also published a post about the project on my website: matthewvanbommel.com/projects/sacra…
Super cool new tool to examine the shooting trends of NBA players!

I'm a little late to the game, but if you haven't yet seen this great video about @IveShery13 and her role with the 76ers analytics team, I highly recommend giving it a watch! youtube.com/watch?v=MpLHMK…
Happy to announce the launch of my website redesign: matthewvanbommel.com I also wrote a post about the design process and the lessons I learned: matthewvanbommel.com/projects/perso… This is my first deep dive into designing a site, so any feedback is welcomed!
This is a good reminder that blocks, like assists, are subjective and susceptible to scorekeeper bias. Research by Matthew van Bommel and @LukeBornn demonstrates the extent of the issue for the NBA, and I imagine it applies to college basketball as well. arxiv.org/abs/1602.08754
