Investigate event_msg_action_type
play_by_play
has a event_msg_action_type
field. These map to the event_msg_type
. Understanding what these mean and adding them to a const table will greatly increase the queriability of the play_by_play
table, possibly. The nba_api docs go into a bit of detail, but generating a solid mapping of id -> understandable value is still needed.
