Templates are stored here in two forms.

The directories atlantic, central, midwest, and pacific contain individual
templates for each game stored by the division of the home team.

The files templates.nov.Z, templates.dec.Z, etc. contain concatenated and
compressed templates of all games for a particular month in chronological
order.  If you run mkbox.c (found in the nba/src directory) on a
concatenated file (after uncompressing it), you'll produce separate
templates for all the games contained within.

These files are as complete and accurate as possible, however, no
guarantees are made.  In some cases there are known discrepancies, and
these are marked with a WARNING line in the template.  We hope to
eventually reconcile these, and will upload the corrections when we do.
We'd appreciate hearing about corrections and about any additional errors
you may find at nbastats-admin@mit.edu.
