I'll just be adding some quick thoughts off the cuff as I watch the replay.
- The big story over the last two games, and one that will certainly bear watching, is that the Hoyas are suddenly not playing great defense. One of the stats pages at the top of the page is called "Big East Snapshot" which graphically shows how each team is playing offensively and defensively, adjusted for competition and venue. After running off a stretch of six straight games of allowing an adj def. efficiency of less than 90 pts / 100 possessions, the last two games - and actually three of the past four - have had the Hoyas above that mark. To be clear, it's not that the Hoyas are playing poor defense, just not at the elite level of December.
- The stats for the previous game vs. Marquette showed that the starters struggled to defend but the freshmen off the bench were able to shut down the Golden Eagles. Against the Mountaineers, it was the starters who ended up with solid defensive stats while the bench were a step behind. I wondered how much of that was simply due to the Hoyas attempting to extend the game late in the second half, but the same difference was also there if I look only at the first half stats (except Whittington, who rated very well in the Lift-off half).
- I've seen some some complaints that Henry Sims is suffering from an inability to finish his inside shots. Today is probably a good example of what Henry is actually suffering from - Greg Monroe disease. He's simply settling for too many shots away from the basket; of the 10 FGAs for Sims in today's game, eight were recorded as jumpshots in the play-by-play (of course, Henry also missed his two layup attempts as well).
Let's run the numbers:
