Graph

Two variables have been used for the scatter plot. 1. Average Points per game (X Axis). 2. Total games won during the regular season (Y Axis).

The graph contains data for all teams from both conferences from 2009-2010 to 2017-2018 regular seasons.

Most successful teams have been Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets with the highest number of victories and average points per season.
