Message: [QUOTE="LoudHouse, post: 1449180, member: 5389"] No, all the numbers prove is that he had an incredibly small sample size as a junior, compared to a senior when he was a workhorse. It is a given that his shooting percentage was going to decrease dramatically when he went from the fourth option on offense to the first option, and was routinely double-teamed on every play. I love statistics, but you can use them to prove or disprove anything you want. For instance, the whole turnover debate: when you are only playing 20 minutes a game, and are not focused on by any defense, you are going to turn the ball over considerably less than when you are playing 35 minutes a game and being double teamed almost every play. That proves nothing, other than that he had a MUCH higher usage rate as a senior and therefore was inevitably going to turn the ball over more. [/QUOTE]
