How much does the average fan know about basketball? The answer is “surprisingly little.” While everyone loves to play armchair shooting coach from the comfort of their couch, the real experts use a Microsoft-powered shot-tracking technology that measures everything from exit velocity, shot angle, and hot spots on the floor with pinpoint accuracy.
