Message: [QUOTE="Intpseeker, post: 2112709, member: 5607"] So, for : As a team, UCLA has scored 2449 points on 2804 opportunities for a team NISE of -355. Compare this to UConn's 2982 points coming from 2705 opportunities or a team NISE of +277. UCLA takes more shots and scores way fewer points than we do. I believe this is the least efficient team, in regard to NISE, whom we have played. Their five top scorers combine for a NISE of -272, with Korver being the most efficient at -9, and Billings bringing up the rear with a -110. If you look at UConn starters through last night: KLS................. 523 opportunities and 709 points NISE = +186 Phee................ 532 opportunities and 688 points NISE = +156 Gabby............... 440 opportunities and 465 points NISE = +25 Kia................. 350 opportunities and 394 points NISE = +44 Saniya.............. 233 opportunities and 252 points NISE = +19 That is a mind-blowing +430 NISE rating for the starters! I understand that this a simple stat summing total FGA's with total FTA's, then comparing that to total points, but UConn is the most efficient scoring machine out there by a staggering margin, and they will be playing a statistically inefficient team at the other end of the scale. +430 vs. -272. Playing the game is different than parsing stats, but I'm not betting against UConn, nor am I thinking this will be close. This could turn into a monumental butt-kicking. [/QUOTE]
