Has anyone else seen this? Just saw a link on Deadspin. This is a pretty cool feature, you can scroll to different points throughout a game and see the box score at that time.

For example, here's the last Utah game v. OKC:

Here's a small Deadspin blurb about it.

Edd Morgan, a software developer in the UK, has created Box Score Replay. Try it out with last night's Mavs-Spurs game—by moving the slider at the top of the screen, you can watch the stat sheet get populated over the course of the game.

Morgan created it because he tends to watch games on tape the next day, and there is no way to check in-game stats without spoiling the outcome. It's great for writers who watch games on League Pass the next morning, but it's fun for the rest of us too. How else would you notice that Tim Duncan had a double-double 33 seconds into the second half, before anyone on either team hit double figures in any category? Or that in the Knicks game, Steve Novak didn't attempt a shot until 2:20 left in the third?

As of now, Box Score Replay only goes back the last two days worth of games. Here's hoping someone pays Morgan a lot of money to keep this going.

Here's the about page on the site: https://boxscorereplay.com/about

The guy lives overseas and watches replays so he likes to see updated box scores throughout the game without spoiling the result. I thought some international Jazz fans might like this.

About Box Score Replay

As a basketball fan that lives outside of the USA (in Europe), it's difficult to watch games live. Sure, I can manage the first game tipping off on the east coast every night, but if there's a great game happening over on the west? That's too late. I got **** to do in the morning.

So, sometimes I have to watch games the day after they air live, using League Pass. But, before now, I couldn't look at a box score or anything as the game is playing because it would spoil the result for myself. That's why this exists. So you and I can keep track of stats as they happen, even if they happened two days ago. Or something like that.

Any questions or comments? I'm on the Twitter.

Sorry if this was already posted elsewhere.
 
It doesn't seem to work in the crappy IE browser I have to use at work, but this is a very cool idea. Thanks for posting it.
 
Boy, that site is so thorough....it even has the total number of ounces each player has of tattoo ink on there body!!!
 
was fun to watch jeffy's fgs through the 2nd quarter. the attempts just kept going up and up, but the makes weren't really changing.
 
I saw a thread about this on reddit too - the guy plans on putting more work into it and putting it on Github over the weekend. Hopefully this will lead to some additional categories.
 
Saw this on Reddit! Love the idea, especially since 95% of the games I watch are recorded. Really need minutes tho. As Jazz fans, we love to rage over how many certain players do and don't get.
 
Asked him about the minutes played.

Really cool idea, and something we will all probably be using on a regular basis once it really catches on.
