Just some quick stats/observations on SU players at this point in season...

[B]1.)  Hughes playing well, especially as of late.[/B]

[U]Last 7 games[/U] - Averaging 16.9 ppg / 5.1 rpg / 1.7 apg / 2.3 tpg / [B]477% FG  [/B](vs 451% for season)

[B]2.)  Battle's game against St. Bonaventure was outstanding![/B]

21 pts on [B]perfect shooting (8/8)[/B] & 6 steals

[B]3.)  Howard having a difficult season so far (groundbreaking analysis you only get here folks, haha) - needs to drive ball more.  But - shooting may be coming around (or, at least little better on his 3's).[/B]

Howard only 11 free throws attempted this year in 254 mins -[B] 1 every 23 mins![/B]  (Not good...)

Vs last year, Howard had 128 FTAs in 1422 mins, or 1 every 11 mins.

[U]3 PT Shooting:[/U]  Howard 1st 5 games - .167% vs Howard last 5 games - .350%  (Hey, it's improvement.)

[B]4.)  Carey, when given minutes (at MSG) played incredibly.  So...why not given more minutes?[/B]

[U]Carey's averages in 2 games at MSG:[/U]  37 mpg / 20 ppg / 5 rpg / 3 spg / 4 tpg / 591% FG!

[B]5.)  Marek extremely judicious with shot selection...Too much so?[/B]

Marek has 31 FGA all year!   In 262 mins played, that's one shot every ~8.5 mins!

[B]6.)  Oshae's game picking up lately...thank goodness.[/B]

[U]Last 9 games for Oshae[/U]:  13.9 ppg on 446% FG (vs season average of 389% FG).

[B]7.)  [U]Lastly:[/U]  Big gap in season average shooting percentage from Battle/Hughes to Brissett/Howard.[/B]

Battle - 480% FG (season averages)
Hughes - 451% FG

Brissett - 389% FG
Howard - 294% FG

[COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)][B][U]Finally:[/U][/B][/COLOR]  Looking to actually make drive up from Buffalo to attend a game this Saturday vs G-Tech (first time in probably 5 or more years)!  [COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)][B]Any advice as to ticket purchase strategy?  Anyone have any looking to get rid of?[/B][/COLOR]  Get at me!  (Please, and thank you.)
