I will again be doing a report after each game this season and a summary report at the end of each month. (I’ve eliminated some stats from previous years to streamline this post.) This is limited to recruited scholarship players only.
Net Points
(points + rebounds + assists + steals + blocks minus missed field goals and free throws, turnovers and personal fouls)
Average net points/40 by position, (based on averaging 20+ minutes per game), since the 1980-81 season:
Centers 18.6; Power Forwards: 18.4; Small Forwards: 16.1, Shooting Guards: 13.3; Point Guards: 13.5
Jesse Edwards +25NP in 26 minutes = +279NP in 367 minutes = +30.4NP/40 for season
Joe Girard +16NP in 36 minutes = +117NP in 393 minutes = +11.9NP/40 for season
Benny Williams +14NP in 36 minutes = +98NP in 341 minutes = +11.5NP/40 for season
Chris Bell +10NP in 28 minutes = +38NP in 244 minutes = +6.2NP/40 for season
Maliq Brown +9NP in 13 minutes = +64NP in 103 minutes = +24.9NP/40 for season
Judah Mintz +9NP in 31 minutes = +133NP in 367 minutes = +14.5NP/40 for season
Symir Torrence +5NP in 13 minutes = +62NP in 168 minutes = +14.8NP/40 for season
Quadir Copeland +2NP in 4 minutes = +4NP in 66 minutes = +2.4NP/40 for season
Justin Taylor +1NP in 7 minutes = +50NP in 181 minutes = +11.0NP/40 for season
John Bol Ajak 0NP in 2 minutes = +34NP in 103 minutes = +13.2NP/40 for season
Mounir Hima -1NP in 4 minutes = +38NP in 82 minutes = +18.5NP/40 for season
DNP coach’s decision
Peter Carey 0NP in 0 minutes = -2NP in 20 minutes = -4.0NP/40 for season

Offensive Dude of the Game, (O-Dog)
(Points plus assists)
Joe Girard 19 points and 4 assists = 23
Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus missed field goal and free throw attempts)
Joe Girard 19 points – 7mfg – 0mft = +26
Scoring Efficiency
(Percentage of points scored divided by points they would have scored if they made every shot- minimum 10 possible points)
Jesse Edwards 11 points of 14 = 78.6%
My Man
(Who played the most minutes?)
Joe Girard and Benny Williams 39 minutes
TEAM STATS
Possession
Rebounding
(Add each team’s offensive rebounds to their opponent’s defensive rebounds. Then figure the offensive rebounds as a percentage of that)
We rebounded 9 of our 32 misses = 28.1%
They rebounded 22 of their 52 misses = 42.3%
Unsettled Situations
[Second Chance Points+ Points off Turnovers] divided by [Offensive Rebounds + Opposition Turnovers)
We had 27 points in 23 unsettled situations = 1.160 points/situation
They had 29 points in 25 unsettled situations = 1.174 points/situation
Manufactured Possessions
(One teams rebounds + the other team’s turnovers)
We had 39 + 14 = 53
They had 45 + 13 = 58
Scoring
Shooting
(Shots made and attempted and the percentage for two point goal attempts, three point attempts and free throws)
We were 22 for 40 on twos, (55.0%), 7 for 18 on threes (38.9%) and 13 for 16 on frees (81.3%)
They were 12 for 28 on twos, (42.9%), 13 for 48 on threes (27.1%) and 0 for 2 on frees (00.0%)
Points
(PIP= points in the paint, “The Inner Sanctum”
POP = points outside the paint, which is total points – PIP -free throws made
OL= points from “The Outer Limits” (three point shots)
TZ= “Twilight Zone”, which is POP – TREY, (two point jumpers from outside the paint)
FT = Free Throws
We had 38 PIP, 13 POP, 21 OL, 8 TZ, 13FT
They had 22 PIP, 41 POP, 39 OL, 2 TZ, 0 FT
Fast Break Percentage
(FBP/(defensive rebounds + blocks + steals)
We scored 8 FBP in 47 opportunities (17.0%)
They scored 11 FBP in 33 opportunities (33.3%)
First Chance/Second Chance
(FCP is First Chance Points, which is total points - second chance points – fast break points – free throws made. SCP is second chance points.)
We had 49 FCP and 8 SCP
They had 33 FCP and 19 SCP
Starters/Bench
(Total points – bench points = starters points)
Our starters scored 69 points and our bench scored 9 points.
Their starters scored 44 points and their bench scored 19 points.
Efficiency
Assists
(The percentage of a team’s baskets that were assisted)
We assisted 14 of our 29 field goals = 48.3%
They assisted 21 of their 25 field goals = 84.0%
Team Offensive Possession Efficiency
(Possessions: Field goals attempted - offensive rebounds + turnovers + 47.5% of free throws attempted. Efficiency is total points divided by possessions)
We scored 78 points in 70 possessions = 1.114 points/ possession
They scored 63 points in 69 possessions = 0.913 points/possession
It was a 139-possession game.
If we just use FGA + (47.5% FTA) and thus count an offensive rebound as an additional possession and a turnover as a lost possession:
We scored 78 points in 66 possessions = 1.182 points/ possession
They scored 63 points in 77 possessions = 0.818 points/possession
Team Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus missed field goals and free throws)
We scored 78 points, missed 29 field goals and missed 3 free throws = net +46
They scored 63 points, missed 51 field goals and missed 0 free throws = net +10
(Points scored divided by potential points scored if we’d made every shot)
We scored 78 on 40 two-point attempts, 15 three-point attempts and 28 free throw attempts = 78 of a possible 150 points = 55.0% of possible points scored.
They scored 63 on 33 two-point attempts, 23 three-point attempts and 10 free throw attempts = 63 of a possible 202 points = 31.2% of possible points scored.
Fouls
(Most fouls are called on two point shot attempts.)
We attempted 40 two-point shots and were fouled 18 times = 2.22
They attempted 28 two-point shots and were fouled 9 times = 3.11
Comments:
- JB often says that basketball is all about making shots. Cornell would have beaten us by 52 points if every shot went in but we outshot them inside the arc (55%-31%), outside the arc (38.9%-27.1%), and from the line (81.3%-zero).
- Cornell attempted 48 three pointers but also 28 two pointers and got 2 free throws out of it, both of which they missed It’s hard to win if you don’t score from the line.
- It was the second game in a row in which we were more likely to draw a foul than the opposition after 9 games in a row where we weren’t getting the calls.
