In 1998, Quantified Scouting Service was formed by Garrick Barr, a Phoenix Suns employee (who later founded Synergy Sports Technology), and for the first time, every possession of every NBA game was logged according to professional play-type criteria (e.g. post-ups, pick and rolls, etc.) This equaled about 1265 games or 260,000 possessions

posteos
Explanation:
Parece traducción literal, pero es lo que se usa (también en Argentina) para referirse a la situación en la que un jugador se coloca debajo del poste (del aro) esperando recibir para convertir. Y postear se usa como verbo.
