Quote
61. Kansas State Wildcats
The Wildcats were manhandled at Texas Tech, and Deathbite could not really play due to an ankle injury. The Flush was a bright spot with 24 points against the Red Raiders, but Kansas State was not competitive in that game. Kansas State has only one win against a team ranked in the top 100 of the KenPom.com efficiency ratings.


62. Oklahoma State Cowboys
With wins over Florida State and Iowa State, the Cowboys have had some good moments. Jeffrey Carroll is the Cowboys' best player. All of Oklahoma State's losses have come to top-25 teams (Texas A&M, Wichita State, West Virginia and Oklahoma). The Cowboys are getting 18.3 PPG off turnovers, the most by them since ESPN began tracking that stat in 2011-12.

We are such a bad rebounding team. I mean, even in a night where I thought we gave our best effort of the year, we got destroyed on the boards.

1) Effort was really good first 15 minutes.

2) with the 74-62 lead, we had held OSU to just under 1.00 PPP and 41.7 eFG.   The last 2:15, we played too tenative and a bit lazy.  They scored their final 8 times

3) 58-58 game. Time Out. We scored 28 pts in last 14 Possessions.   

4) OSU was tremendous shooting FTs. After we started just 6-13, we made 22 of our last 24 FTs.

That was a tough gritty win by our team.  Three or four guys played while under the weather including Wade, Brown and Stokes.  Made the clutch plays when we needed to.  Barry Browns effort ranks up there with with the best we have seen.  Sorry if some of you were not able to see this game in person.

It would sucked to waste Barry's performance.  The previous night had Ku not gotten a career high 27 from Newman they might have lost to lowly Isu at the Phog

If we are gonna have a chance going forward, we have to get better contributions from Wainright/Patrick. Those 2 are gonna be the first ones off the bench to sub our 1-4 spots. Last night in 28 Minutes they gave us 3 pts 2 reb 2 asst. 1-4FG 0-2FT.  Need more than that. 5 fouls 5 combined Pts/Reb.

Obviously Dean taking 5 shots is not ideal either

I think the missing link defensively is a rim protector.  We are so concerned with help defense on a dribble drive that we leave at least 2 guys wide open outside.

If you want a good chuckle, watch Wainwright.  He refuses to sprint.  It's hilarious.  He jogs everywhere.  Even when his man is beating him down court, jogs.  It cost us 2 easy baskets and to oscar's credit, he didn't see much of the floor in the second half.

I think we overcompensated. OSU gets the ball out in transition as well as anyone I've watched this year and their guards constantly got to the rim throughout the first half and much of the 2nd. They just adjusted to drive and kick at the end once they decided to foul and extend the game.

Posse, I'd expect that take from milton milton but come on man; saying that assumes no one else would score on those possessions. Dean took five shots because one of the guys who feeds him the ball scored 38 points, that's pretty easy to figure out.

Dammit. I used this site,
https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/kansas-state/2018.html
when I posted that earlier they didn't update to add last night's stats, I should have noticed that.

Either way he led in attempts until last night, was he supposed to take more shots when the guy distributing the ball was in the midst of a 38 point night?

That also merits discussion when talking about how many shots Wade, or any other non perimeter player gets when they have volume scorers who have to get them the ball in positions to score.

Check this out
https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/conferences/big-12/2018.html
Deano is 1st team all conference
3rd in FG%
3rd in 2 pt makes
4th in PER
2nd in eFG
4th in true shooting percentage
8th in defensive rebounding percentage
2nd in offensive resting
4th in offensive win shares
5th in offensive box +/-
All of this with Barry being high in usage stats
5th in field goal attempts
4th in usage percentage
5th in points produced
All of this says to me that Dean is doing great with the chances he's getting but if he's playing in the front court with Barry and Kam handling the ball, there will always be a natural cap on his chances.

Everyone not named Barry & Kam, 30 shots in 127 min.

9 of 16 games he has 8+ shot attempts. He is Shooting 70% on 2pt and 68.6 eFG in those games.

I just don't want to see this -
Dean 5 shots in 37 Minutes
Everyone not named Barry & Kam, 30 shots in 127 min.

9 of 16 games he has 8+ shot attempts. He is Shooting 70% on 2pt and 68.6 eFG in those games. 

* 45.0 eFG on the 30 shots mentioned above

Are you able to contextualize the stats you post? Do you understand why, in the Oklahoma State game, his attempts were down? Are you able to compare his attempts in the OSU game to those in recent games and understand why they are different? For the record these are his shot attempts the last five games
Washington State 7
Iowa State 16
West Virginia 8
Texas Tech 12
Oklahoma State 5
Ask yourself what stat you can find to possibly explain those single digit games

BTW, The Flush is attempting the same number of shots a game that Jacob Pullen did his junior year. Keep that in mind when discussing how many shots Dean gets.

Brown's shooting at a lower rate than Pullen (27.3 vs. 28.2) He's playing more minutes than Pullen did that year!

On that team, Clemente also shot at a 28.1 rate and Samuels was 20.0. Stokes is 22.5 and Wade is currently 21.6.

So you are right that the volume of shots Brown takes is a factor,  oscar's strategy is part of it, but Wade's also part of it. There's definitely room for him to shoot more, Brown's shooting isn't that out of the ordinary.

I guess I'm not seeing what you want me to see MIR. I understand that Barry shoots a lot and Kam does too.

Dean had 16 & 11 shots vs Isu/Tulsa.
In those 2 games Barry & Kam took 45.6 & 46.6% of the shots

Dean had 6 & 7 shots vs Vandy & Wazzu.
Barry & Kam took 45.0 & 46.0% of shots in those 2
