Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 2881298, member: 289"] I will again be doing a report after each game this season and a summary report at the end of the non-conference season, the ACC season and the post season. Net Points (points + rebounds + assists + steals + blocks minus missed field goals and free throws, turnovers and personal fouls) Elijah Hughes 29NP in 37 minutes Tyus Battle 20NP in 36 minutes Buddy Boeheim 12NP in 15 minutes Paschal Chukwu 12NP in 21 minutes Marek Dolezaj 12NP in 23 minutes Frank Howard 7NP in 27 minutes Oshae Brissett 5NP in 26 minutes Bourama Sidibe 1NP in 10 minutes Jalen Carey 0NP in 3 minutes Robert Braswell -1NP in 2 minutes DNP coach’s decision None Injured None Out for the year Howard Washington Awards Offensive Dude of the Game, (O-Dog) (Points plus assists) Elijah Hughes 22 points + 3 assists = 25 Shooting Efficiency (Points minus field goal and free throw attempts) Elijah Hughes 22 points - 5mfg – 0mft = +17 and Scoring Efficiency (Percentage of points scored divided by points they would have scored if they made every shot- minimum 10 possible points) Elijah Hughes 22 of 35 possible points = 62.9% Sat Us Down (Who scored the first SU basket of each half?) 1st Half- Elijah Hughes trey 1:30 in 2nd Half- Elijah Hughes trey 1:24 in TACO Bell MVP (Who scored the point that got us to 70, which gets you free tacos with your ticket stub) Oshae Brissett jumper with 3:06 seconds left My Man (Who played the most minutes?) Elijah Hughes 37 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 4 of our 28 misses = 14.3% They rebounded 15 of their 39 misses = 38.5% Effective Offensive Rebounding (Divide second chance points by the offensive rebounds) We got 6 points on 4 O-Rebs = 1.500 points/O-reb They got 19 points on 15 O-Rebs = 1.267 points/O-reb Unforced Turnovers (Total turnovers – the other team’s steals = unforced turnovers) We had 6 turnovers – 4 steals = 2 unforced They had 13 turnovers – 7 steals = 6 unforced Points per Takeaway (Points off turnovers divided by the number of turnovers the other team had) We had 9 points from 13 takeaways = 0.692 points/takeaway They had 3 points from 6 takeaways = 0.500 points/takeaway Unsettled Situations (Effective offensive rebounding + Points per Takeaway: [Second Chance Point + Points off Turnovers] divided by [Offensive Rebounds + Opposition Turnovers) We had 15 points in 17 unsettled situations = 0.882 points They had 22 points in 21 unsettled situations = 1.048 points Manufactured Possessions (One teams rebounds + the other team’s turnovers) We had 28 + 13 = 41 They had 39 + 6 = 45 Scoring Shooting (Shots made and attempted and the percentage for two point goal attempts, three point attempts and free throws) We were 12 for 23 on twos, (52.2%), 14 for 30 on threes (46.7%) and 7 for 8 on frees (87.5%) They were 12 for 30 on twos, (40.0%), 8 for 29 on threes (27.6%) and 5 for 6 on frees (83.3%) Points (PIP= points in the paint, “The Inner Sanctum” [MEDIA=youtube]LaF7VPjAM-Y[/MEDIA] POP = points outside the paint, which is total points – PIP -free throws made OL= points from “The Outer Limits” (three point shots) [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCcdr4O-3gE"]The Outer Limits - 1963 Seasons - Intro - HD[/URL] TZ= “Twilight Zone”, which is POP – TREY, two point jumpers from outside the paint, FBP = fast break points [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G11AhAIf18A"]The Twilight Zone- Both Original 1959 Intros[/URL] POTO= points off turnovers We had 18 PIP, 48 POP, 42 OL, 6 TZ, 9 POTO, 12 FBP They had 14 PIP, 34 POP, 24 OL, 10 TZ, 3 POTO, 2 FBP Fast Break Percentage (FBP/(defensive rebounds + blocks + steals) We scored 12 FBP in 42 opportunities (28.6%) They scored 2 FBP in 29 opportunities (6.9%) First Chance/Second Chance (FCP is First Chance Points, which is total points - second chance points – fast break points – free throws made.

We scored 1 points They scored 5 points Starters/Bench (Total points – bench points = starters points) Our starters scored 54 points and our bench scored 19 points Their starters scored 35 points and their bench scored 18 points Assists (The percentage of a team’s baskets that were assisted) We assisted 22 of our 26 field goals = 84.6% They assisted 11 of their 20 field goals = 55.0% 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 73 points in 59 possessions = 1.237 points/ possession They scored 53 points in 60 possessions = 0.883 points/possession It was a 119 possession game. Team Shooting Efficiency (Points minus missed field goals and free throws) We scored 73 points, missed 27 field goals and 1 missed free throws = net 45 They scored 53 points, missed 39 field goals and 1 missed free throws = net 13 (Points scored divided by potential points scored if we’d made every shot) We scored 73 on 23 two point attempts, 30 three point attempts and 8 free throw attempts = 73 of a possible 144 points = 50.7% of possible points scored. They scored 53 on 30 two point attempts, 29 three point attempts and 6 free throw attempts = 53 of a possible 153 points = 34.6% 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) 11-17, 18-15, 26-10, 18-11 Fouls (Two point shots and free throws attempted per times fouled.) We attempted 23 two point shots, attempted 8 free throws and were fouled 8 times = 2.875; 1.00 They attempted 30 two point shots, attempted 6 free throws and were fouled 8 times = 3.75; 0.75 We were more likely to get calls when attempting two point shots and got more free throws per foul. Comments - Our last four “sit downs” have come on Elijah Hughes treys. - We actually seemed to have gotten tacos on an Elijah Hughes trey with 4:41 left but the refs ruled it was a two during a time out with 3:28 left. I’ve never had my tacos taken away from me before. Fortunately Oshae Brissett gave them back to us with a jumper at 3:06. - Our rebounding in this game was our worst of the season (14.3%) and the gap between ours and theirs (38.5%) was the highest of the season. And we won by 20 anyway. - We’ve been outscored in second chance points 8-36 in the last two games. And we won those goes by a total of 31 points. - In our three game winning streak we ate 161-90 in our opening sets (FCP). - We were 1-5 in last possession points but Miami’s ‘5’ consisted of a play where Buddy Boeheim intentionally fouled because we were not in the 1 and 1 yet so everyone stopped playing but the ref refused to call it and the guy hit a shot and a meaningless OL shot when we were up by 23. - It was a barely officiated game with each team being whistled for fouls only 8 times. Yet it was not a rough or dirty game. Maybe "Jeffersonian" officiating, ("That government is best which governs least"), is a good idea? [/QUOTE]
