NCAA Game Stats

The scores and live game stats for the NCAA tournament at CBS Sportline are an incredible piece of work. Go to that link, and click on “Live Game Stats” for a game that’s in progress. You get a nice scoreboard, the last ten plays in a play-by-play format, as well as current box scores, and the leader board for that status of all the other games.

And, the shot chart is really sweet. It always loads with the shot distribution charted for the player who most recently made a shot. If you click on the “Complete shot chart” link, you get the chart, and can select any player from either team and see their made/missed chart. All practically live.

    NHL.com has a similar thing for live NHL games. It shows a log of all
    the “events” happening like shots, whistles (including reasons for the
    whistle), penalties, shots, goals, etc.

    And it shows a picture of the rink which shows where shots are taken
    from and which were goals.

    Click “Launch IceCast” for the game you’re interested in (after it has
    started).

    cool.

    it seems easier for hockey though, since they seem to spend most of the
    time just skating around in circles and knocking each other down. ;->
