What does that mean? Someone will explain why we give the ball away every 54 seconds? We don't want the other team to know how good we are? We want the fans to stay and buy another coke in Q4?
Last game I watched the only thing that mattered was the final score. Hard to win putting up 50 - 55 points in a game. There are only 200 minutes in a game stop giving 30%+ of them to under 30% scorers. At least understand your not the best shooter on the floor so going 0 for whatever is not helping. But I guess someone can explain that as well!

As basketball fans, I'd think you'd know that the box score only tells you the basics.

Go to a game, look at the lineup, watch the game, understand the flow, and you'd have your answers.

OK, so all those analytics that every major sport has embraced don't really mean anything, got it. Well I know one thing is for sure, if they don't cut down on the turnovers and put the ball through the hoop the "flow" of this season is clockwise every time the other team pushes the handle!

The problem isn't your emphasis on analytics. It's that you're focusing on a few games and few stats instead of the full picture. Look at the lineups through the year. Look at who is playing and who isn't playing now, and you'll figure out what's going on with turnovers.

If you look at the shooting stats for the players with a lot of minutes, you'll figure out that two are streaky, one has had a couple off games, and that one player more than makes up for shooting with defense and some big rebounds.

Go to a game and you'll figure it out even faster.

It's fun going to see the Women play. It's nice seeing a Griff team winning. They play hard the whole 40 minutes. Was disappointed when Dani Haskell left but she has led Bona to a 4-20 record this year. The coaches and players are very accommodating.A lot of positive energy on that bench. It seems like everyone wants to be there unlike Taj and Long.

Dani, nice kid and we all wish her well. The women’s team has great chemistry and they’ve all bought into the process & coaches.
