Welcome to the fifth episode of The Nothing But Nylon Podcast. This show has been created to be an audio companion to Nylon Calculus with conversations from your favorite basketball analytics writers talking about their writing, research, and most of all, hoops. The intention is to make the conversation inclusive so that listeners of all analytic comfort levels will find something appealing.

Nick Restifo (@nickrestifo) and Andrew Johnson (@CountingBaskets) of Nylon Calculus dropped by to discuss their 2016-17 NBA Season Win Total projections. They dive into their methodologies, the insights that have come from their projection work, and give best guesses as to where their numbers might be wrong.

Check out Andrew and Nick’s work, discussed on the podcast:
