Hi HN, I made this after seeing a few similar projects on the front page. NBA API endpoints are public and there’s a pretty robust python package ( https://github.com/swar/nba_api ) that I referenced for the endpoint structure to build an sdk in go. used BubbleTea and LipGloss for styling. It was a bit tricky to test the live endpoints but I watched Friday’s Final game with this and it worked pretty well

I just don't understand, why not add a little info, like where it's pulling data from. Is there just no interest in communicating anything to potential users? idk.

    fair enough. I updated the README to include where data is coming from and more info on how to use the tool

Thanks for making this and the others too!

Have you considered building a feature where game data is recorded so that we could then replay them later?
