Sažetak
Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyze differences in the parameters of situational efficiency of two clubs that were by results most successful in the Croatian basketball league at the end of the season 2012/2013. The hypothesis of this research is to identify variables that discriminate winning matches from the defeated ones. Methods: The sample consisted of 8 matches between basketball clubs „Zadar“ and Cibona“ played in the regional ABA league, the Krešimir Ćosić cup, Croatian championship and playoff. Used variables are 13 standard indicators of situational efficiency in basketball. Parameters of descriptive statistics were calculated for an overall sample, and also for groups of winner teams and hence the defeated teams. By using T- test for independent samples, for each of the 13 parameters of situational efficiency, the existence of significant differences between winning and defeated teams has been examined. Results: Results indicate that variables Points made, Offensive rebounds, Three point shots total, Free throws total and Fouls made statistically significant differ winning teams from defeated ones (p<0, 05) Conclusion: Obtained results show that, from the viewpoint of basketball expertise, indicators of situational efficiency are only a partial indicator of efficiency of an individual or a team that emphasizes further importance of an expert basketball experience, knowledge and understanding in their interpretation, with the aim of acquiring relevant information of overall efficiency of all participants of the game. Surely, the research is limited due to a relatively small number of matches. In future researches dealing with similar issues, the sample should certainly be increased, and nonstandard indicators of situational efficiency should be used.
