📖
What is the Net Rating & How does it work?

Net Rating is a core efficiency metric used in professional basketball to gauge a team’s overall performance per 100 possessions. It combines the offensive side (how many points a team scores) with the defensive side (how many points a team allows), delivering a single figure that reflects net point differential.

A positive Net Rating indicates a team scores more points than it concedes, while a negative value signals the opposite. Coaches and analysts rely on this statistic to evaluate roster moves, game‑plan effectiveness, and to compare teams across the league.

Net Rating = text{ORtg} – text{DRtg}
ORtg = Offensive Rating (points per 100 possessions)
DRtg = Defensive Rating (points allowed per 100 possessions)

Because the calculation is based on per‑100‑possession rates, Net Rating normalizes performance regardless of pace, making it a reliable tool for cross‑team and cross‑season analysis.
