    UConn in the NBA Jan 2026

    Yup. Between Cam, along with Pippen & Jerome returning soon, they have depth at the point and are better off without Ja. It's just... I can't find a single trade that makes sense. The only hope is that somebody stupid (Sacramento?) bails them out.

    Best UConn comebacks?

    This is the correct list. Everything else is commentary.

    UConn in the NBA Jan 2026

    The reason to control for volume is that post-ups are low-percentage shots to be used VERY selectively for all but a few players. If a guy's only getting one post touch per game despite putting up 1.2 points per possession, that should tell you he's only posting in late-clock, emergency...

    You failed to control for games played and volume. Here you go – 20+ games, at least 2 post-ups per game. Four of the top five guys are future Hall of Famers.

    UConn in the NBA Jan 2026

    He shot 43% from 10-16 feet, 42% from 16-3p, and 39.5% from 3-point range. I'm not a 3rd-grade teacher so I can't help explain to you the math of how one of those shots is worth far, far more than the others. Also the Knicks were 29-53 that year. They sucked . Nobody should value a...

    UConn in the NBA Jan 2026

    He took more 3s than post-ups that year. He generated more points per possession on 3s than any other play-type that year. He averaged .96 points per possession on post-ups that year, and 1.28 ppp on post-ups this year, which is all the very definition of "learned how to become an efficient post...

    I don't spend as much time on these boards as I used to but I feel comfortable saying you're one of the worst posters we've ever had. Really, really impressive. Anyway, Clingan's offensive rating has climbed from 130 in November to 132 in December to 146 in January. His PPG has climbed from...

    Big East Coaching Hot Seat/Departure Ranking

    I hope you're right, because I think Holloway is a very good-to-excellent college coach, one who's maybe good enough to resurrect a dying program. And I do not want that to happen. Best-case scenario for Big East purposes is, I truly believe, Georgetown. Getting them consistently back into the...

    UConn in the NBA Jan 2026

    The data is that he's become a multi-faceted offensive player who can punish a defense based upon what they're giving him – be it on a pick-and-pop, on the roll, with his high-post passing, posting switches and, most especially, offensive rebounding (he leads the league). His numbers in terms of...

    Big East Coaching Hot Seat/Departure Ranking

    I think Holloway is coaching UNC or Cuse next year. Maaaaybe St. John's or Georgetown if they move quick and provide a giant bag, but I doubt it. Either way, I'm thinking there's less than a 25% chance he's staying. Ceiling with Hall is just too low and the open jobs are going to be too $$$.

    18/8/2 on 7/8 shooting at the half. He's gonna be a cross between Rudy and Brook, but better than either.

    He's 3/4 from 3 in the first 6 minutes of Portland's game tonight.
