I alluded to some number crunching in the 3 Point thread. Thought I'd drop this chart over here so y'all would know what I was looking at when I suggested AJax might be preferable to Gaff running point in certain situations. This is our guard play (didn't include Hawkins) per 40 minutes, comparing the full season thus far to just the six games vs top 100 teams (of which Bonnies were at time we played them).

The one thing that's most evident is that there's no drop off in AJax's game vs better competition, in fact he gets more rebounds and has fewer TOs. Cole's drop off is in TOs, otherwise he's also solid. Gaff and Martin have played significantly worse vs better teams.

Small sample, but I think at the very least it shows AJax is maturing and playing under more control. Martin will have his senior leadership moments but drops off quite a bit, and Gaff's TO/A ratio drops by half and his inability to hit a trey hurts. At least he's getting to the line.
