Teamwork in Euroleague (Updated)

How can one determine which team possesses team work the best? I guess the simplified way would be looking up their total assists made.

So, let's proceed to the results:

(Note: All numbers mentioned were accumulated during the Round 1 of Euroleague First Group Phase)

Another, slightly more complicated, but significantly indicative than the previous, is to accumulate the field goals and assists made by a team and then determining the percentage of the goal fields made which were a result of an assist.

Let's see what changes:

The difference in Assist counting in the different countries may be a reason for this. In France, assists are always counted "easier" than in Italy or in Spain for example

@ christophe

I included only assists from the Euroleague, which has a unified and it's own counting system and stats team.

I know this because Euroleague stats counted 2 assist less for Panathinaikos than the French TV stats in the Roanne-Panathinaikos game.

So I think these numbers are as comprehensive as they can be.

@ akilas.

Thank you. The photos were not that hard to find. There are more from where those came :)
