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.)
Net Points
(points + rebounds + assists + steals + blocks minus missed field goals and free throws, turnovers and personal fouls)
Cole Swider +23NP in 35 minutes = +151NP in 403 minutes = +15.0NP/40 for season
Buddy Boeheim +22NP in 33 minutes = +176NP in 444 minutes = +15.9NP/40 for season
Jimmy Boeheim +18NP in 28 minutes = +153NP in 407 minutes = +15.0NP/40 for season
Jesse Edwards +16NP in 27 minutes = +176NP in 327 minutes = +21.5NP/40 for season
Symir Torrence +6NP in 14 minutes = +42NP in 142 minutes = +11.8NP/40 for season
Benny Williams +6NP in 14 minutes = +11NP in 162 minutes = +2.7NP/40 for season
Frank Anselem +2NP in 11 minutes = +34NP in 131 minutes = +10.4NP/40 for season
Joe Girard +2NP in 33 minutes = +163NP in 401 minutes = +16.3NP/40 for season
John Bol Ajak 0NP in 3 minutes = +5NP in 13 minutes = +15.4NP/40 for season
Bourama Sidibie 0NP in 5 minutes = 0NP in 5 minutes = 0.0NP/40 for season
DNP coach’s decision
Chaz Owens 0NP in 0 minutes = +4NP in 4 minutes = +40.0NP/40 for season

Offensive Dude of the Game, (O-Dog)
(Points plus assists)
Buddy Boeheim 22 points and 2 assists = 24
Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus missed field goal and free throw attempts)
Cole Swider 21 points – 4mfg – 0mft = +17
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 15 = 73.3%
My Man

Cole Swider 35 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 28 misses = 32.1%
They rebounded 18 of their 43 misses = 41.9%
Effective Offensive Rebounding
(Divide second chance points by the offensive rebounds)
We got 9 points on 9 O-Rebs = 1.000 points/O-Reb
They got 15 points on 18 O-Rebs = 0.833 points/O-Reb
Points per Takeover
(Points off turnovers divided by the number of turnovers the other team had)
We had 27 points from 22 takeovers = 1.227 points/takeaway
They had 18 points from 16 takeovers = 1.125 points/takeaway
Unsettled Situations
(Effective offensive rebounding + Points per Takeover: [Second Chance Points+ Points off Turnovers] divided by [Offensive Rebounds + Opposition Turnovers)
We had 36 points in 31 unsettled situations = 1.161 points/situation
They had 33 points in 34 unsettled situations = 0.971 points/situation
Manufactured Possessions
(One teams rebounds + the other team’s turnovers)
We had 34 + 22 = 56
They had 37 + 16 = 53
Scoring
Shooting
(Shots made and attempted and the percentage for two point goal attempts, three point attempts and free throws)
We were 26 for 37 on twos, (70.3%), 6 for 20 on threes (30.0%) and 10 for 15 on frees (66.7%)
They were 8 for 19 on twos, (42.1%), 15 for 46 on threes (32.6%) and 7 for 8 on frees (87.5%)
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 40 PIP, 30 POP, 18 OL, 12 TZ, 10 FT
They had 14 PIP, 47 POP, 45 OL, 2 TZ, 7 FT
Fast Break Percentage
(FBP/(defensive rebounds + blocks + steals)
We scored 10 FBP in 43 opportunities (23.3%)
They scored 15 FBP in 27 opportunities (55.6%)
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 51 FCP and 9 SCP
They had 31 FCP and 15 SCP
Starters/Bench
(Total points – bench points = starters points)
Our starters scored 75 points and our bench scored 5 points.
Their starters scored 30 points and their bench scored 38 points.
Efficiency
Assists
(The percentage of a team’s baskets that were assisted)
We assisted 14 of our 32 field goals = 43.8%
They assisted 21 of their 23 field goals = 91.3%
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 80 points in 71 possessions = 1.127 points/ possession
They scored 68 points in 73 possessions = 0.932 points/possession
It was a 144-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 80 points in 64 possessions = 1.250 points/ possession
They scored 68 points in 69 possessions = 0.986 points/possession
Team Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus missed field goals and free throws)
We scored 80 points, missed 25 field goals and missed 5 free throws = net +50
They scored 68 points, missed 42 field goals and missed 3 free throws = net +23
(Points scored divided by potential points scored if we’d made every shot)
We scored 80 on 37 two-point attempts, 20 three-point attempts and 15 free throw attempts = 80 of a possible 149 points = 53.7% of possible points scored.
They scored 68 on 19 two-point attempts, 46 three-point attempts and 8 free throw attempts = 68 of a possible 184 points = 37.0% of possible points scored.
Fouls
(Most fouls are called on two point shot attempts.)
We attempted 37 two-point shots and were fouled 15 times = 2.47
They attempted 19 two-point shots and were fouled 13 times = 1.46
If they’d attempted 37 two point field goals at that rate, they’d have been fouled 25 times.
Comments:
- Our individual ‘net point’ averages are very impressive and still holding up. A player who averages 10.0NP per 40 minutes is playing well enough to start on many teams. We can put five guys on the floor who are averaging 15 or more. But the box score is mostly about gaining possession of the ball and scoring with it. It’s not about preventing the other guys from scoring and that’s been our problem.
- Interesting that Cole Swider has led the team in minutes the last two games, (tied with Jimmy B. vs. Brown)
- We weren’t just outrebounded 34-37. 18 offensive rebounds meant that Cornell rebounded 42% of their misses to our 32%. And they were clearly the shorter, less athletic team. No doubt the fact that they attempted 46 three points to our 20 was a factor.
- In the years I’ve been keeping track of these things, I don’t believe I’ve seen a 70% shooting percentage on two point shots until this game. It came after a game win which we’d hit 62% of our three pointers, which I also don’t recall seeing.
- Cornell having 91% of their baskets assisted also seems unprecedented. Basically it means they didn’t have to dribble before a shot, so the passer gets partial credit for the score.
