Message: [QUOTE="diggerfoot, post: 4774132, member: 1673"] There are different types of efficiency. Admittedly I am predicting the most rudimentary kind because it can easily be measured just by looking at the stats [USER=1303]@JRRRJ[/USER] so graciously provides every year. It’s easy to check on one’s predictions, though so far mine are the only ones. By factoring in minutes you are addressing production instead of efficiency, a stat the BY is often predicting. On a related note, Bueckers averaged about 16 shots per game her freshman year. This is about the same for Stewart’s career average and less than only M. Moore’s career average of around 18 per game, the UConn leader for volume shooting. Bueckers is not likely to average more minutes/shots/production than she did her freshman year, but she can become even more efficient. I believe the type of efficiency you might find most important is most accurately calculated via production per possessions (not minutes). This can be done with a little more effort, though more than I am willing to invest. If you would like to start such a thread with your own predictions for productions/possessions (or even minutes) to be examined, myself and others would find it interesting. In any case, all efficiencies of an individual depend upon the efficiency of the team as well. That is why my caveats and others bring up health. [/QUOTE]
