Not all turnovers are from him trying to score. Some are from trying to setup others. Some are just dumb mistakes

Mr Bassman a cool person

Not involved in trying to score. Take out turnovers and realize that stats for what you're trying to prove already exist.

BYU offensive basketball, by the numbers.

Thank goodness KC is gone next year.

KC summary: ball wouldn't go in the hoop + turnovers

Totally agree - not intending to show "value"

Pretty good assessment for offensive side of the ball

The other thing that validates this assessment is it identifies some of the

Thx for putting this together! Fascinating actually and confirms what gut/eyes

your assessment does not account for rebounding, assists, and steals...KC was

Totally 100% agree

This. OP mentioned this clearly

I think the analysis is "You don't want to end a possession with KC."

Linescratcher

3/9/16 6:30pm

Or - "KC ends more possessions than any other player with less results"

proudcugr

3/9/16 6:58pm

True, but it ignores other player's successfuly ended pos. made possible by KC

SconnieCoug

3/10/16 2:43pm

I think you could easily add in Offensive Rebounds as a factor because that

I think this stat is being misunderstood

proudcugr

3/9/16 8:30pm

You can't include turnovers in scoring efficiency

Mr Bassman

3/9/16 8:37pm

I think this is less about misunderstanding the stat...

No other player would have performed as well in KC's role

Great post. Keep your tripleDs, give me Cummard over KC 8X a week.

Halford? His slash line indicates he was highly efficient.

He, Haws and Winder...all made good use of their possessions last year.

"I didn't go in with an agenda"

Mr Bassman

3/9/16 7:03pm

I don't think that you can leave out assists and make this be accurate.

The problem is that the stat is flawed

Mr Bassman

3/9/16 8:11pm

Maybe you don't understand what a "stat" is. It's just numbers. It's only flawed

BlooGeek

3/10/16 10:23am

There's a problem with that

proudcugr

3/9/16 8:22pm

Then why include turnovers? A stat with no possible positive outcome. Just negative.

Mr Bassman

3/9/16 8:24pm

Not all turnovers are from him trying to score. Some are from trying to setup others. Some are just dumb mistakes

Mr Bassman

3/9/16 8:28pm

The reality is that..

How many times does he have to say they were better of with him on the floor

BlooGeek

What?

This response is very unproductive

A better analysis - Take two

This is very insightful. Thanks.

I did feel like we needed to get Seljaas more involved on O that last game.

Gaps vs. Defensiveness

BYU'01

3/10/16 9:32am

Basically, KC took too many shots. Makes sense to me.

jkccoug

3/10/16 3:08pm

KC took fewer shots & made a higher percent of them than Fisch and Emery overall

SconnieCoug

3/10/16 3:56pm

Wrong metric

proudcugr

3/10/16 6:41pm

How well did this player convert his possessions into points.

SconnieCoug

3/11/16 9:55am

Basic Data

proudcugr

3/11/16 12:05pm

Rose used KC like that because he had to.

It would be interesting if you could cut the data

Why not just use player efficiency ratings? They include all major stats

jkccoug

3/10/16 10:41am

You might say that PER tells how much a player should be on the floor

Linescratcher

3/10/16 10:54am

Great take.

jkccoug

3/10/16 11:45am

Nobody had a higher assist-to-turnover ratio...

BYU'01

3/10/16 12:37pm

Not sure which measure of efficiency you mean, PER or the OP

Agree, good discussion, a couple of things to consider
