A Question on Researching Team Records

Does anyone know if there's a website that will list teams records from a certain point in time?

Say I wanted to find out who has the NBA's worst record since January 14th - is there a place I could go and find that out without having to do it manually?

Thanks!

You can look for "Team splits" on just about any website--they'll have the breakdown by month. So you could just look at Feb, March, and then add in the games since January 14. It's not THAT difficult...

Not difficult, just time consuming. I thought of a quicker way using the Wayback Machine and ESPN.com's standings page. Thanks anyways. :)

use a little bit programming.

I would use Python (easy, free and portable) to do it.

subroutines:

1. Download the web pages.

2 Read in the stats.

3. Do anything you want to those stats.
