Looks like teams to study would be Iowa State, Gonzaga (third on Jesse’s list of teams this happens to the most) and Baylor. Their 3pa totals for the year are somewhere in the mid to high 600s while ours is mid 700s. Houston is an odd team that allows a TON (over 800) but at a low percentage (under 30). Kansas is fairly close to Houston percentage wise only being a percentage point or 2 worse but that makes a big difference over the course of a season in total makes.

At the same number of 3FGA as Houston, KU would’ve only allowed 13 more makes so not necessarily a big issue as that’s only about 0.4 ppg more at this point.

ISU’s strategy is to hand check everyone on the line and force the refs to call them all

Shotquality.com numbers. Providence the luckiest team in America (Kenpom agrees). Has KU as the 6th luckiest team. Basically, Providence is BY FAR the luckiest team this year. Just feels like something has to give here.
-
I watched the Nova at Providence game, and the Friars are not very good at defending. They had to go to zone because Nova was shredding them up. They definitely have some good scorers in Watson and Bynum. Nova doesn’t run, which allowed the Friars to send bodies crashing for rebounds. They won’t have that luxury with us. I think it will be a close game at half, and we pull away with a double digit win.

Say this into existence!

Updated post Weekend games. We are Final 4 bound and how sweet it is!
Ochai needs 9 points to reach #15 place on the all-time scoring list. Right now Och sits 3rd in the Self era for points in a season (699) trailing Frank Mason (753) & Dedric Lawson (700). Incredible season.
Other milestones
Christian Braun needs 4 points to reach 1,000 for his career.
Remy Martin needs 4 points to reach 2,000 points for his career.
David McCormack sits in #46th place all-time on the scoring list.
-
Updated going into the Championship Game. Let’s bring it HOME!!
Ochai sits in #15th place all-time & would need a Wilt Chamberlain performance to get to #14th at this point. Incredible career regardless.
David sits in #45 place with a chance to move up 1 or 2 spots with another monster game.
Braun cracked 1,000 points
Remy needs 1 point tonight for 2,000.
Kenpom rating jumped significantly with the Nova win.

Feel like all the stats and PERs and data go out the window tonight. Anything can happen in one game. We are the better team on paper but none of that matters if they end up making more baskets than us tonight! Do think it’s fitting that Big Dave is at the top of that list as presumably the most important player on this roster. When he plays well we are just so tough to beat.
Och finally had his hot shooting night I’d been waiting for all season going 6-7 from 3 but unfortunately didn’t combine that with his more steady all around type games he’s put in over the course of the year. Here’s hoping he comes up big tonight with 30 plus scored from EVERYWHERE not just behind the arc. I really want him to be the MOP of the final four but I’d settle for Dave getting 20 and 10 and taking it away from him.
-
With PER’s its easier for Big’s to have higher numbers. But agree stats go out the door with this game. It’s mano vs mano and hopefully our dudes are better then theirs
-
@BeddieKU23 Are rebounds just over weighted in the formula? If so you’d think Jalen would have gone up more in the last half of the season.
-
boards, bigs also tend to shoot more 2’s etc which lead to higher FG % on their usage etc. Dave’s PER is actually lower then last year but obviously we wouldn’t change a thing
-
@BeddieKU23 Or is it more that most of Dave’s numbers come in smaller amounts of minutes on the floor? He rarely plays 30+ minutes…
-
@BeddieKU23 I figured it would account for effective FG% and give that extra boost for 3s. Does it not?
-
There’s a bunch that goes into the calculation but it certainly appears Bigs can have much higher numbers then guards can sustain
-
The Player Efficiency Rating (PER) is a per-minute rating developed by ESPN.com columnist John Hollinger. In John’s words, "The PER sums up all a player’s positive accomplishments, subtracts the negative accomplishments, and returns a per-minute rating of a player’s performance
As the PER largely measures offensive performance -while the calculation seems pretty complex-, it has also limitations on the defensive side. Its creator, Hollinger freely admits that two of the defensive statistics it incorporates blocks and steals can produce a distorted picture of a player’s value and that PER is not a reliable measure of a player’s defensive acumen.
-
Found this: https://hackastat.eu/en/learn-a-stat-player-efficiency-rating-per/ it is VERY complicated to say the least.

Need updates @BeddieKU23

Yes where do we rank on the metrics? Will Newell vote us #1 now??

Well even as the Champs Kenpom said we are 3rd best. Gotta love it

Hubert Davis said he was told KU was hard to defend because you can defend some but you need to stop them all and that’s not gonna happen. Self thought five minutes into the second half there was no way we could defend like this for the rest of the game but we did. I think it was Barkley who said Kansas was the only team who could have won like we did because every player hit big shots. Jalen, Remy, Och, Christian and Dave just took turns keeping us in it until it was all over. Juan and Och had 5 TO’s and everyone else three total but Juan had three steals and Och had one. NC got numerous second or third chance shots but were guarded and blocked just enough to limit their success. Bacot and Davis had six offensive rebounds each but were just a combined 8 out of 30 from the floor. We won this puppy because we were clearly the better team and came up clutch over and over. We gave them a huge gift and then took it back.

Lolz. Sure the best team doesn’t always win the title but it’s hilarious he still won’t vote the champs #1. We got the rings!

Final update for the season, WE ARE THE CHAMPS. It will never get old.
Ochai Agbaji ends his storied career at #15 on the All-Time Scoring list. Whenever his Jersey is retired I’ll be there.
CB in 61st place after his Jr year. If he returns he’d have a chance to be in the Top 20 in scoring all-time.
David McCormack sits in #45th place all-time. If he used his covid year another that could end in the Top 20.
Remy got his 2,000 career points in a KU uniform. Remy the legend!
Our rating actually dropped on Kenpom & Torvik for winning the Championship. Can’t make this stuff up. As always analytics are just a tool.

Best team in the country. Every stinking team we beat was on a winning streak but that streak ended just like we had over the years. We will always remember the Legendary Remy. And this title gives me the best feeling. Coach Self said he fell more connected to this team than any other. Next year will be very interesting and I hope we get to see Zach flourish and watch KJ become the shut down defender and the El Kabonging heir. BobbyP has received accolades from Self just like JWil did or pretty close anyway. I can see us losing seven players. Ochai, Dave, Mitch, Remy, JCL, Christian and Jalen. In the last mock draft I saw before the title game Och #13 and CB #33. It will take a great coaching staff to get us ready for a repeat run. What will the starting five look like? IDK but we may go seven + deep.

Thanks again.

Wild stat here. First team in the KP era to win a natty and have the #1 SoS https://twitter.com/littlehouse_ku/status/1511598686815629315?s=21&t=ue-ldGl7FBwPclnqmp77_Q

Furthermore, #KUBball finished the season with a 16 wins against Quadrant One opponents. Five more than any other team in America. Three more than Baylor last year.
Just a ridiculously tough team.
