Minutes -- Mason and Graham played the most and we clearly had a core of 4 guys who played 63% if the minutes,

+/- -- Ellis edged out Selden by a single point 484 to 483 with Mason a distant third and Graham and even more distant 4th.

Offense -- Of the top 9 players, Svi had the best scoring team scoring rate. KU scored 2.11 with Svi on the court. Ellis was 2nd at 2.04 but the ratings were very consistent past that of the top 9 pluayers with the exception of Traylor. The team was clearly least offensively effective with Traylor on the floor with a +/-/Min of 1.84.

Defense -- Lucas was the core defensive player. KU allowed 1.57 points per minute barely edging out Selden at 1.58 points per minute. It was pretty close with the exception of Greene (1.79) and Bragg (1.81).

Scoring Margin -- This is probably the most important of all the stats. And Landen Lucas is the guy that had the best +/- per minute at -.443/ Selden was next at 0.429. Traylor was far and away the worst at 0.129 with Bragg and Greene also in not great category.

Delta - this is more a function of who the replacement is off the bench. Selden led herewith Ellis closely behind. They were far ahead. Lucas was a solid 3rd. A little surprisingly was Graham. That was mostly from the early season. What this stat says is did the team do better with you in the game or on bench.



Don't worry about the mules, just load the wagon!!

Great stuff, Corpus. Very telling and, of the aspects you highlight, pretty confirming of what we all saw.

PS: Bragg's D has a LONG way to go...he needs to work long and hard on that (and eat lots of KC Joe's Z-Man sandwiches) over the spring and summer.

Thanks again--for this and all of your fantastic contributions! ;)
