How to create 'density' plot from 2d scatter data

How to create 'density' plot from 2d scatter data?

I have 2D scatter data, and i would like to determine the density of points (count) within a user defined 'grid' over the data.

The density would then be used to contour with or a type of heat map

i would like to make a plot like the following: http://www.gpsworld.com/gis/gss-weekly/gis-meets-march-madness-using-spatial-data-analyze-basketball-team-and-player-perform
