This is a project about basketball and data.
Using the pro basketball reference website, I want someone to create a csv file with all the gamelogs for all the NBA teams since 1985. I want this for all regular season and all playoff games.
The webpages that contain this data are like this:

The data that I want is on the tables. I don;t want anything else.
atl is the team, and 1986 is the year. I want all years from 1986 to 2012. The teams will be:
BAL','ATL','BUF','CAP','CHA','CHH','CHI','CIN','CLE','DAL',
'DEN','DET','GSW','HOU','IND','KCK','KCO','LAC','LAL','MEM',
'MIA','MIL','MIN','NJN','NOH','NOJ','NOK','NYK','NYN','OKC',
'ORL','PHI','PHO','POR','SAC','SAS','SDC','SDR','SEA','SFW',
'TOR','UTA','VAN','WAS','WSB'
I want only one csv file, with one sheet that contains all this data. The first column will be the year, the second will be the Team, the 3rd will say if it was a regular season game or a playoff game. Then the other columns will follow what's on the tables.
If you do this on python I would like to see the code you used to extract all this data.
Thank you
