Hey gang, I figured I would do a four-game review of the basketball season thus far, and a preview of the three other teams in the main-event of this Las Vegas tournament. This four game review, obviously, can only draw on a limited sample in terms of data/film/game-play, and only includes one high-level opponent, but hey that’s what I got to work with! I will try to do another of these in late November or early December - kind of a state-of-the-basketball-season check in!
The Season thus far:
General impressions:
#11 (AP), #11 (USA Today/Coaches), #12 (Kenpom)
Kenpom team numbers: #10 (Ortg), #25 (Drtg), #23 (Pace), #44 (Offensive turnover% - surprising to all of us - raw numbers inflated due to pace it seems (and the 1 awful TO game vs Kansas)), #25 (Orb% allowed on defense - of available Orbs, we concede only 21%!
