Osun when healthy Possession stats

[jpschmack]

So without Osun healthy (And I’m including the Ohio game), the Bonnies:
Score 0.9552 points per possession
Allow 1.1056 points per possession

With Osun, the Bonnies:
Score 1.0825 points per possession
Allow 0.9208 points per possession

We averaged 67 possessions per game without Osun, which translates to:
+8.5 offense, and -12.4 defense per game. aka, Healthy Osun = 20.9 swing in our favor.

aka, if we had Osun healthy every game, we’d be 18-3 with losses to UD and VCU (Quad 1), and Buffalo (ugh), but that’d put us Number 23 in the RPI (probably around 27 in the NET). Or maybe we’d still lose Ohio, and be 17-4, but 25 in the RPI and about 30 in the NET.

But that would also gives Dayton and VCU a Q1 win each (instead of Q3!), and raise everyone in the A-10’s SOS a few slots — aka, we’d be three bid league easy, with us getting a 7 seed**. And SLU could get us a fourth bid.


** Haha, just kidding, we’d DESERVE a 7 seed, they’d give us a much worse seed.

No doubt JP. Losing OO was a big loss for everyone.

GREAT INFO ... All we an do is WIN out and extend those Stats even further. OO is improving but still needs to avoid those silly fouls. Yesterday I thought #3 and #4 fouls were BS. Both should have been no calls - but the officials went whistle happy for a stretch there. Overall I thought the Officials did a decent job though. AMADI did a fantastic JOB when we needed it most !

OO's on/off stats or any lineup stats you are interested in

Nice to see the stats that further validates what a difference maker OSUN is.

In the first half of the DUKES win he got his 2md foul at the 10 min mark. We were up 1. AMADI came in and had a contested dunk that may have been his career best. With OSUN watching for the rest of the half we increased our lead to 5 to close out the half.

In the 2nd half, due to fouls, KYLE and OSUN were forced to the bench at the same time on two occasions. JAREN steps in at PG and throughout the half we essentially maintained our 5 point lead & extended it for short periods of time.

DUKES tied the game with just over a min left. KYLE comes back in and nails a TREY off a perfectly executed baseline inbounds play, DOM hits a long 2 and makes a FT to go up 6 with 5 secs left.

This team has shown a pattern of resilience & depth throughout the season.

Resilience is a foundational component and typically precludes the mindset of expecting to triumph in any battle. This team isn’t yet of that belief, but signals suggest they’re moving in that direction. They’re clearly bonded as a team, supporting, encouraging and enjoying each other’s accomplishments, but also showing levels of seriousness and enthusiasm towards challenges. It is tough to discern commitment witnessing only games and not practices over time. But with obvious leadership being routinely displayed by several, it’s logical the same leadership qualities get extended to practices.
Adversity, whether from manpower issues or superior strength of opponent, becomes a catalyst to strengthening resilience, but to expectation changes also. More adversity awaits them and as a young team, I sense this team displays an emotional equilibrium that is a harbinger of a more mature, near business-like approach to whatever or whom ever challenges their intended path. And with that, the consistent and irrevocable expectation that they will ultimately prevail. They become spiritus invictus.
It’s a process and I think this team is well upon the way.

Precedes not precludes.
Sorry 😐
