That is allot of information. How long were you locked up in a room Khaal. :eek: When you start breaking down everything a team does statistically it really becomes fascinating and it can lead to other variables. Team speed, momentum, and match-ups. It's complicated but you can see patterns develop. Teams learn quickly and adjust accordingly and implement strategies. I believe teams have adjusted well lately against the Cyclones and we are getting funneled out of position clogging up the outside at times. As a smaller team without a consistent inside threat teams are forcing us into situations we aren't comfortable with. Need to get back to what we were doing earlier and become the aggressor and not allow ourselves to get behind. Great stuff Khaal.

Honestly, the data involved, and the graphs took next to no time. The words took a bit of effort though.

By my eye and gut, the offense hasn't had as good of flow as it did during the 14-0 run. Not sure what kind of stats can prove/disprove that. I would try to look at points in transition, how many players get a touch each possession, second chance points, etc...

Also, it looks like your stats are averaging the entire season. It would be interesting to compare the last 3 games to the first 14 (since you said putting the numbers together was the easy part).

Can't be "small" and turn it over a bunch. That has to calm down.

Make shots

Rebound

That's about it.
