Awards
Offensive Dude of the Game, (O-Dog)
(Points plus assists)
Elijah Hughes 25 points + 3 assists = 28
Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus field goal and free throw attempts)
Elijah Hughes 25 points – 8 mfg – 2 mft = +15
Scoring Efficiency
(Percentage of points scored divided by points they would have scored if they made every shot- minimum 10 possible points)
Elijah Hughes 25 of 48 possible points = 52.1%
Sat Us Down
(Who scored the first SU basket of each half?)
1st Half- Oshae Brissett lay-up 2:20 in
2nd Half- Oshae Brissett jumper 2:59 in
TACO Bell MVP
(Who scored the point that got us to 70, which gets you free tacos with your ticket stub)
We could have used some tacos.
My Man
(Who played the most minutes?)
Elijah Hughes and Buddy Boeheim 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 11 of our 33 misses = 33.3%
They rebounded 9 of their 26 misses = 34.6%
Effective Offensive Rebounding
(Divide second chance points by the offensive rebounds)
We got 11 points on 11 O-Rebs = 1.000 points/O-reb
They got 10 points on 9 O-Rebs = 1.111 points/O-reb
Unforced Turnovers
(Total turnovers – the other team’s steals = unforced turnovers)
We had 13 turnovers – 6 steals = 6 unforced
They had 12 turnovers – 5 steals = 7 unforced
Points per Takeaway
(Points off turnovers divided by the number of turnovers the other team had)
We had 16 points from 12 takeaways = 1.333 points/takeaway
They had 7 points from 13 takeaways = 0.538 points/takeaway
Unsettled Situations
(Effective offensive rebounding + Points per Takeaway: [Second Chance Point + Points off Turnovers] divided by [Offensive Rebounds + Opposition Turnovers)
We had 36 points in 23 unsettled situations = 1.565 points
They had 17 points in 22 unsettled situations = 0.773 points
Manufactured Possessions
(One teams rebounds + the other team’s turnovers)
We had 28 + 12 = 40
They had 31 + 13 = 44
Hustle Stats
One of the radio sponsors gives an award to the team that had the most “hustle stats”, which they define as rebounds + steals + blocks. I decided to keep track of that, too:
We had 28 + 4 + 5 = 37
They had 31 + 4 + 7 = 42
Scoring
Shooting
(Shots made and attempted and the percentage for two point goal attempts, three point attempts and free throws)
We were 9 for 22 on twos, (40.9%), 12 for 29 on threes (41.4%) and 15 for 18 on frees (83.3%)
They were 12 for 18 on twos, (66.7%), 16 for 34 on threes (47.1%) and 6 for 9 on frees (66.7%)
Combined percentages were: 1656 (409 + 414 + 833) vs. 1805 (667 + 471 + 667) = -149
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, FBP = fast break points
POTO= points off turnovers
We had 16 PIP, 38 POP, 36 OL, 2 TZ, 16 POTO, 19 FBP
They had 16 PIP, 56 POP, 48 OL, 8 TZ, 7 POTO, 8 FBP
Fast Break Percentage
(FBP/(defensive rebounds + blocks + steals)
We scored 19 FBP in 33 opportunities (57.6%)
They scored 8 FBP in 26 opportunities (30.8%)
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 24 FCP and 11 SCP
They had 54 FCP and 10 SCP
Last Possessions
(Points scored on the last full possession of a half, a game or an overtime period.)
We scored 0 points
They scored 2 points
Starters/Bench
(Total points – bench points = starters points)
Our starters scored 64 points and our bench scored 5 points
Their starters scored 62 points and their bench scored 16 points
Assists
(The percentage of a team’s baskets that were assisted)
We assisted 12 of our 21 field goals = 57.1%
They assisted 20 of their 28 field goals = 71.4%
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 69 points in 61 possessions = 1.131 points/ possession
They scored 78 points in 60 possessions = 1.300 points/possession
It was a 121 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 69 points in 60 possessions = 1.150 points/ possession
They scored 78 points in 56 possessions = 1.393 points/possession
Team Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus missed field goals and free throws)
We scored 69 points, missed 30 field goals and 3 missed free throws = net 36
They scored 78 points, missed 24 field goals and 3 missed free throws = net 51
(Points scored divided by potential points scored if we’d made every shot)
We scored 69 on 22 two point attempts, 29 three point attempts and 18 free throw attempts = 69 of a possible 149 points = 49.0% of possible points scored.
They scored 78 on 18 two point attempts, 34 three point attempts and 9 free throw attempts = 78 of a possible 147 points = 46.3% of possible points scored.
Breakdown by Quarters
(Points scored between the beginning of the game and the 10 minute mark of the first half, then halftime, then the 10 minute mark of the second half, the end of regulation and then overtime of there was one)
19-23, 18-15, 18-19, 14-21
Fouls
(Two point shots and free throws attempted per times fouled.)
We attempted 22 two point shots, attempted 18 free throws and were fouled 17 times = 1.29; 1.06
They attempted 18 two point shots, attempted 9 free throws and were fouled 14 times = 2.00; 0.64
We were more likely to get calls when attempting two point shots and got more free throws per foul.
Comments
- Frank Howard had +17NP vs. Duke. Buddy Boeheim had -1 vs. Baylor. And that doesn’t account for their defense.
- Next year's projected starting back court had -3 NP between them.
- We took a combined 319 seconds to get our first basket of the two halves. The only game where we waited longer to ‘sit down’ was, ironically a game we won: the first Duke game, when we waited 4:42 in the first half and 43 seconds in the second half. We were down 0-6 in the first half but only 2-2 in the second half and came back to take the lead in both halves, so the slow starts were not really decisive.
- Their offensive rebounding was supposed to be a factor but we had more offensive rebounds (11-9) and more second chance points (11-10), so that wasn’t why we lost.
- We had a huge edge, (36-17), in points in unsettled situations, (second chance points + points after turnovers). That’s normally a strong stat: we were 12-5 when we won this stat coming in and only exceeded that margin against pre-conference schedule: Eastern Washington, Colgate, Northeastern, Arkansas State. But it wasn’t enough last night.
- We finally got out and ran, 19 FBP to 8, but that wasn’t enough, either.
- The bears won First Chance Points, (the opening sets) 24-54, -30. The only worse gap we had all season was against Virginia, 25-61 (-36). It was the lowest output by SU since Georgia Tech (24).
