Do the Raps have advanced stats personal on staff?

I know some teams like The Nuggs, and Dallas utilze people that crunch stats. But never heard of anything from the Raps.

I've noticed that Triano, Colangelo, Devlin etc... use a lot of really raw stats which seems weird to me. Like "Golden State had the best offense in the league scoring 112ppg". When they were really 9th in offensive rating. Maybe it's just to relate to the common fan?

I remember Jay saying that they will be using a lot more stats this year, but not sure if he meant advanced stats or just basic stats.

Sounds like a great question to ask Jay. I'll try to ask him before the teams next preseason game on the 7th.

I don't know how beneficial the "advanced" stat crunching to a teams overall success. I'd like to know the numbers on which team's utilize stat crunchers and relate it to their success.
