Some advanced stats.
Obviously the 2nd half rebounding effort was awful, contributing to a 1.49 efficiency effort on defense against what is not a great offensive team. The Cats turned a game they were dominating into a close win by allowing Vandy to rebound an amazing 10 of their first 11 missed shots to start the 2nd half. Fortunately the offense was efficient. The 1.32 ppp for the game ties the ASU game as one of the top 15 efficiency performances going back to 2002.
Sneed and Stokes had incredible offensive games. Brown was solid. Stockard was really good in his limited minutes. Wade did rebound effectively, but was once again an offensive no show, very similar to ASU.
We have the parts to be REALLY good offensively, it will be matter of if this team can get any stops. Bruce might as well turn to a Hoiball philosophy and see what these guys can do.
