Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 2410948, member: 289"] I’ve added so many things to my post-game “Net Points” posts over the years that it’s become a very long post to read and a longer one to do. I’ve decided to have separate posts for the numbers for a particular game and for the cumulative season totals. It’s the later that takes most of the time and lengthens the post so much. There was too much verbiage and too many numbers. I’m still going to figure the season totals but I’ll post them at three different stages of the season: after the pre-conference schedule, after the conference schedule and after the post season. In the meantime, I’ll go with this stream-lined version of “Net Points, etc.” after each game, with numbers and commentary only for that game. That should make it both quicker to do and more digestible. [B]Net Points[/B] (points + rebounds + assists + steals + blocks minus missed field goals and free throws, turnovers and personal fouls) Oshae Brissett 18NP in 38 minutes Matthew Moyer 16NP in 36 minutes Tyus Battle 14NP in 40 minutes Bourama Sidibe 5NP in 10 minutes Marek Dolezaj 5NP in 16 minutes Paschal Chukwu 5NP in 20 minutes Howard Washington 0NP in 1 minutes Frank Howard -5NP in 39 minutes DNP coach’s decision None Injured or suspended None Left team Geno Thorpe [B]Awards[/B] [I]Offensive Dude of the Game, (O-Dog)[/I] (Points plus assists) Tyus Battle 22 + 3 = 25 [I]Scoring Efficiency[/I] (Points minus field goal and free throw attempts) Matthew Moyer 18 points – 2 mfg – 3 mft = 13 [I]Sat Us Down[/I] (Who scored the first SU basket of each half) 1st Half- Oshae Brissett lay-up 30 seconds in 2nd Half- Tyus Battle lay-up 1:48 in [I]TACO Bell MVP[/I] (Who scored the point that got us to 70, which gets you free tacos with your ticket stub) Matthew Moyer with a dunk with 1:07 left My Man (Who played the most minutes?)

[I]Breakdown by Quarters[/I] (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) 22-15, 18-14, 20-17, 12-17 [B]Fouls[/B] (Two point shots, points in paint and free throws attempted per times fouled.) We attempted 35 two point shots, scored 28 points in the paint, attempted 33 free throws and were fouled 21 times = 1.67; 1.33; 1.57 They attempted 28 two point shots, scored 24 points in the paint, attempted 23 free throws and were fouled 20 times = 1.40; 1.20; 1.15 They were more likely to draw fouls calls when they got it inside but got more shooting fouls called. The differences weren’t big ones. [B]Comments: [/B] - We have out-rebounded every team we’ve played all season, including #2 Kansas and it hasn’t been close: 128/300 = 42.6% vs. 73/291 = 25.1%. The closest game was Maryland: 19/39 = 48.7% vs. 13/33 = 39.4% - We have also led in manufactured professions in every game, by an average of 14. Only Kansas came within double figures, (52-48). - We had a +16 advantage in unsettled situations (17-4 on second chance points and 19-16 points off turnovers = 36-20). - We have out-shot 7 of 8 opponents inside the arc and are 50.3%-41.4% for the years. The one game we lost this stat is the one game we lost. - Outside the arc, it’s the opposite. We have actually won this stat three times but not since the Oakland game and we are shooting 27.4% vs. 34.5%. - We are now +58 from the Twilight Zone, 78-20. We’ve led in this stats 7 times and broken even against Kansas. It’s an important stat for this team because we don’t have a good three point game. But we have guys who can score from 10-15 feet. You may get more points form a shot beyond the arc but you get nothing if it doesn’t go in. [/QUOTE]
