basketball team based on certain factors. e.g. Teams winning percentage,
opposing teams winning percentage, etc...

During the long, dreary, dark winter days when I was cooped up in the house
unable to tend to my garden, I watched a lot of college and NBA basketball
on the idiot box. Would one of you knowledgeable basketball fans please tell
me what RPI stands for? Rebounds per inning?...
