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

Joe Girard +29NP in 40 minutes = +237NP in 683 minutes = +13.9NP/40 for season
Maliq Brown +21NP in 32 minutes = +159NP in 288 minutes = +22.1NP/40 for season
Jesse Edwards +17NP in 27 minutes = +411NP in 615 minutes = +26.7NP/40 for season
Judah Mintz +15NP in 29 minutes = +228NP in 647 minutes = +14.1NP/40 for season
Quadir Copeland +8NP in 17 minutes = +25NP in 95 minutes = +9.5NP/40 for season
Symir Torrence +1NP in 11 minutes = +80NP in 235 minutes = +13.6NP/40 for season
Chris Bell 0NP in 18 minutes = +71NP in 385 minutes = +7.4NP/40 for season
Mounir Hima 0NP in 13 minutes = +51NP in 153 minutes = +13.3NP/40 for season
Benny Williams 0NP in 8 minutes = +139NP in 464 minutes = +12.0NP/40 for season
Justin Taylor 0NP in 5 minutes = +93NP in 321 minutes = +11.6NP/40 for season


DNP coach’s decision
John Bol Ajak 0NP in 0 minutes = +34NP in 118 minutes = +11.5NP/40 for season

Redshirting
Peter Carey 0NP in 0 minutes = -2NP in 20 minutes = -4.0NP/40 for season

Awards

Offensive Dude of the Game, (O-Dog)
(Points plus assists)
Joe Girard 28 points and 7 assists = 35

Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus missed field goal and free throw attempts)
Joe Girard 28 points – 10mfg – 0mft = +18

Scoring Efficiency
(Percentage of points scored divided by points they would have scored if they made every shot- minimum 10 possible points)
Maliq Brown 18 points of 20 = 90.0%

My Man
(Who played the most minutes?)
Joe Girard 40 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 8 of their 32 misses = 25.0%

Unsettled Situations
[Second Chance Points+ Points off Turnovers] divided by [Offensive Rebounds + Opposition Turnovers)
We had 29 points in 25 unsettled situations = 1.160 points/situation
They had 14 points in 16 unsettled situations = 0.875 points/situation

Manufactured Possessions
(One teams rebounds + the other team’s turnovers)
We had 33 + 16 = 49
They had 27 + 8 = 35


Scoring

Shooting
(Shots made and attempted and the percentage for two point goal attempts, three point attempts and free throws)
We were 25 for 42 on twos, (59.5%), 6 for 14 on threes (42.9%) and 12 for 18 on frees (66.7%)
They were 15 for 27 on twos, (55.6%), 10 for 31 on threes (32.3%) and 3 for 6 on frees (50.0%)

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 44 PIP, 24 POP, 18 OL, 6 TZ, 12 FT
They had 24 PIP, 36 POP, 30 OL, 6 TZ, 3 FT

Fast Break Percentage
(FBP/(defensive rebounds + blocks + steals)
We scored 14 FBP in 37 opportunities (37.8%)
They scored 13 FBP in 27 opportunities (48.1%)

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 5 SCP
They had 40 FCP and 7 SCP

Starters/Bench
(Total points – bench points = starters points)
Our starters scored 58 points and our bench scored 22 points.
Their starters scored 54 points and their bench scored 9 points.

Efficiency

Assists
(The percentage of a team’s baskets that were assisted)
We assisted 18 of our 31 field goals = 58.1%
They assisted 20 of their 25 field goals = 80.0%

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 80 points in 64 possessions = 1.125 points/ possession
They scored 63 points in 69 possessions = 0.913 points/possession
It was a 133-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 65 possessions = 1.231 points/ possession
They scored 63 points in 61 possessions = 1.033 points/possession

Team Shooting Efficiency

(Points minus missed field goals and free throws)

We scored 80 points, missed 25 field goals and missed 6 free throws = net +49
They scored 63 points, missed 33 field goals and missed 3 free throws = net +27

(Points scored divided by potential points scored if we’d made every shot)

We scored 80 on 42 two-point attempts, 14 three-point attempts and 18 free throw attempts = 80 of a possible 144 points = 55.6% of possible points scored.
They scored 63 on 27 two-point attempts, 31 three-point attempts and 6 free throw attempts = 63 of a possible 153 points = 41.2% of possible points scored.


Fouls

(Most fouls are called on two point shot attempts.)
We attempted 42 two-point shots and were fouled 17 times = 2.47
They attempted 27 two-point shots and were fouled 12 times = 2.25


Comments:

- In the 6 games I missed, Joe Girard had 93NP in 218 minutes, 17.1/40. It raised his season average from 12.4 to 13.9. Against Georgia Tech Joe had 28 points and 7 assists for 35 O-Dog points, the most “offensive dude” of the season, breaking his own record of 31 +2 = 33, set against Richmond, (just before the three game slump). Justin Taylor topped Joe in shooting efficiency with +19 against Bryant.

- Maliq Brown in those games had 81NP in 154 minutes, (both more than he’s had in the first 14 games combined), an average of 21.0/40. But that lowered his season average from 23.3 to 22.1. He’s been performing well all season. He’s just playing more now. Malik’s 8 for 9 game was topped only by Jesse Edwards’ 9 for 9 performance vs. Oakland.

- Jesse Edwards, in those games had 109NP in 190 minutes, an average of 22.9/40. That brought his season average down from 28.4 to 26.7.

- Judah Mintz, in those games had 58NP in 211 minutes, an average of 11.0/40. That brought his season average down from 15.6 to 14.1.

- Quadir Copeland in those games had 5NP in 9 minutes, an average of 22.2/40. That brought his season average up from 9.3 to 9.5.

- Symir Torrence in those games had 15NP in 35 minutes, an average of 17.1/40. That brought his season average up from 13.0 to 13.6.

- Chris Bell in those games had 29NP in 114 minutes, an average of 10.2/40. That brought his season average up from 6.2 to 7.4.

- Mounir Hima in those games had 9NP in 49 minutes, an average of 7.3/40. That brought his season average down from 16.2 to 13.3.

- Benny Williams in those games had 17NP in 83 minutes, an average of 8.2/40. That brought his season average down from 12.8 to 12.0.

- In the 6 games, we’ve hit 49.8% of our two point shots, which is good but have given up 49.2%, which is not. Blocking shots is one thing, defending the paint or the basket is another.

- In those games, we out-shot the opposition from three, believe it or not, 43.4%-35.4%. It didn’t seem so because they shot 65 more treys than we did and sank 15 more, (+30). Notre Dame made 15 threes and we beat ‘em.

- We’ve won the paint, 190-168 = +22, the “twilight zone” between the arc and the paint, 52-28 = +24 and the line, 78-67 = +11. No single one of those stats negated the -30 on three points but together, they did.

- In the 6 games, we had 215 fast break opportunities, (defensive rebounds + blocks + steals), and scored 50 points. They had 199 and scored 75.

- Uncharacteristically, we’ve led in bench scoring 8 times this season and have lost in starter scoring 7 times, thanks to the problems with the starting forwards and Maliq Brown.

- Everybody loves assist percentage, thinking it’s a measure of team ball. But we’d be 5-15 if that stat determined the outcome. Stand still shooters produce assists because they don’t have to dribble before their shot. Thread the needle between two defenders for a guy who has to bounce it once and forget the assist.
