We currently do not use OPR or the like at all in our scouting process, but it seems like the idea of DAR and ADR may be useful as a supplement to what we currently do for defense. Thanks for the great paper!
Teams like 233 and 180 have defensive maneuver ranking points. So in a separate column if they see you performing a smart/good defensive maneuver you get a point. Then at the end those points are totaled and can usually give a good idea of your strong defensive teams.
