Getting the data

1. create kaggle account: https://www.kaggle.com/
2. get API keys and user name
   • Go to your account, and click on your profile in the top right
   • Then click on "Settings"
   • Scroll down to the API section and click on "Create New Token"
   • Get your username and API key from there

Then run the following command in the terminal being at the root of the repository. Replace "your_user_name" and "your_api_key" with your username and API key. This creates a json file at "~/.kaggle/kaggle.json" with your username and API key. This is used to authenticate your account and download the data.

python nba/data_loader.py -u "your_user_name" -k "your_api_key" --d "wyattowalsh/basketball"
