0 Subject: NBA Box Scores

ESPN changed their box scores at the end of last year and I hate them because I have hit the extra button to “Show Bench” for both teams.
Anyone know a good site for NBA box scores?
In a dream world it would be all on one page like Guru has for Daily Baseball Data.

But at the least I’m looking for all the players for that game – and links to the other games from that same box score.
Can’t remember which other site was close (CBS, Yahoo) – but after viewing the box score I had to go back out of that screen and re-load the previous Scores page.

Trying to limit clicks at work especially

whats up with those scappy boxscore service? do they all think we are on touch devices with small screens and bad resolutions and like all those big ads?
nba.com isn't even nba.com in Austria. and even if I achieve to see the real nba.com it sucks. links are broken, I am not able to see boxscores at all. WTF are they thinking?!?
espn is bad because of all the clicks you need. it would be great to be able to set the option to automatically see the benches.
yahoo sucks because you need to scroll to actually see what you want to see. and the big ads. the top half of their page is useless.

I am now a user of foxsports.com. at least until Guru's dailyhoopsdata.com is fully operational.

I think DailyHoopsData.com is fully operational at this point. There will be tweaks as the season progresses, and there may be some undiscovered glitches to fix, but I think all reporting is now up and running.

Perhaps I could develop an alternate sort format for this report: Daily Point Recap (FanDuel). It now sorts by broad position, but maybe I could add an option that instead sorts and groups by game.

Try this:
FanDuel Point recap sorted in boxscore order

Players are listed by game - away team, then home team.
Starters are listed first.
Bench players are sorted in descending order of minutes played.

I know the stats formatting isn't ideal for this purpose, but it does solve the "all games in one click" issue.

Basketball Reference

Since I can't access the above at my work, best I've found is Basketball Reference. Pretty good layout. My only issue is maybe TOO MUCH info. Click thru's easy from one game to another. Box scores customizable and sortable. Also, the lack of color and ads is a positive when I'm staring at this with my boss walking by.
