Net Points, etc. - Richmond

[SWC75]

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.

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 33 misses = 27.3%
They rebounded 20 of their 39 misses = 51.3%

Unsettled Situations
[Second Chance Points+ Points off Turnovers] divided by [Offensive Rebounds + Opposition Turnovers)
We had 40 points in 27 unsettled situations = 1.481 points/situation
They had 17 points in 26 unsettled situations = 0.654 points/situation

Manufactured Possessions
(One teams rebounds + the other team’s turnovers)
We had 27 + 18 = 45
They had 44 + 6 = 50


Scoring

Shooting
(Shots made and attempted and the percentage for two point goal attempts, three point attempts and free throws)
We were 23 for 45 on twos, (51.1%), 7 for 18 on threes (38.9%) and 7 for 11 on frees (63.6%)
They were 14 for 35 on twos, (40.0%), 13 for 31 on threes (41.9%) and 4 for 9 on frees (44.4%)

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, 27 POP, 21 OL, 6 TZ, 7 FT
They had 26 PIP, 41 POP, 39 OL, 2 TZ, 4 FT

Fast Break Percentage
(FBP/(defensive rebounds + blocks + steals)
We scored 13 FBP in 37 opportunities (35.1%)
They scored 10 FBP in 29 opportunities (34.5%)

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 41 FCP and 13 SCP
They had 48 FCP and 9 SCP

Starters/Bench
(Total points – bench points = starters points)
Our starters scored 72 points and our bench scored 2 points.
Their starters scored 54 points and their bench scored 17 points.

Efficiency

Assists
(The percentage of a team’s baskets that were assisted)
We assisted 11 of our 30 field goals = 36.7%
They assisted 16 of their 27 field goals = 59.3%

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 74 points in 65 possessions = 1.138 points/ possession
They scored 71 points in 68 possessions = 1.044 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 74 points in 68 possessions = 1.136 points/ possession
They scored 71 points in 70 possessions = 1.014 points/possession

Team Shooting Efficiency

(Points minus missed field goals and free throws)

We scored 74 points, missed 33 field goals and missed 4 free throws = net +37
They scored 71 points, missed 39 field goals and missed 5 free throws = net +27

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

We scored 74 on 45 two-point attempts, 18 three-point attempts and 11 free throw attempts = 74 of a possible 155 points = 47.7% of possible points scored.
They scored 71 on 35 two-point attempts, 31 three-point attempts and 9 free throw attempts = 71 of a possible 172 points = 41.3% of possible points scored.


Fouls

(Most fouls are called on two point shot attempts.)
We attempted 45 two-point shots and were fouled 12 times = 3.75
They attempted 35 two-point shots and were fouled 12 times = 2.92


Comments:

- Why does Benny Williams, (6.0NP/40) get 40 minutes and Maliq Brown (19.0) gets 5?

- Amazingly, Richmond got 20 offensive rebounds to our 9 but we had more second chance points, 13-9.

- Our free throw defense is excellent. Our last two opponents are 6 for 22 from the line, (27.3%)
