Message: [QUOTE="RuffRuff, post: 5211104, member: 1268"] There is a massive flaw in metrics if Samson is seen as a well rated offensive player. His single offensive move is a lob dunk, and yeah he does that at a high efficiency. That is something that you can't rely on, is not self created in any way and you cannot build an offensive around. Somehow, someway the metrics must weight that in some form that equals efficiency. There is not a neutral spectator on the planet that looks at Samson thinking oh wow, look at that high caliber Uconn centers offensive game. We have to be real about the guy. How many times do we see him foul 30 feet from the rim, reach in, not react to a man behind him, fumble a ball, not box out. The thing about Samson is that he exponentiates the flaws on this team as being a soft, one dimensional, finesse team. Tarris counters all that and brings in an entirely new dimension and makes this team a much more complicated to defend. [/QUOTE]
