Observations:
  • Super long and athletic, as are most teams that Musselman has success with.
  • Adhering to his Pro background, they run a lot of isolation sets to a) take advantage of their athleticism and b) to annihilate switches/mismatches
  • Defensively they are pesky. Lots of tipped passes and steals that lead to a lot of transition points. Valuing the ball will be crucial.
  • They bite on a lot of pump fakes. Using those and then playing off of a jump stomp/two feet will be important.

Metrics: I like Shot Quality's data. I had a thread on it last year. Some parts aren't perfect, but a lot our. Here is how we stack up.
TeamAdj SQ (Rank)Adj OFF SQ (Rank)Adj DEF SQ (Rank)Rim and 3 Rate (Rank)
KSU0.00 (157)1 (257)1 (85)84% (131)
Arky+0.13 (52)1.09 (97)0.96 (47)83% (154)

Obviously, it is early in szn, so not much time for variation in data. But the data is interesting imo. (Will post our individual players data, which is VERY insightful imo, in reply).
