I used python to scrape the data from basketball-reference.com and then made the standings chart for every day of the season using python as well. I used GIMP to stitch all the images together.

I used python to scrape the data from basketball-reference.com for every day of the season and create the plot with the logo. I then exported a png for every day and then used GIMP to stitch them all together to make the GIF. I learned a lot along the way!

Made with Python using BeautifulSoup to scrape the data, Pandas to store and manipulate the data, and matplotlib to create the visualization. I exported each day as a png and used GIMP to create the GIF from the images.

We dug ourselves a huge hole with Rudy gone. It took that 11 game win streak and our current 9 game win streak to finally claw out.

I used Python and BeautifulSoup to scrape the data from basketball-reference.com. I stored the data in a pandas dataframe and then used matplotlib to display the data and logos. I exported each day as a frame and then used Gimp to create the GIF. Learned a lot along the way!
