[QUOTE="whovous, post: 1187633, member: 67129"] The paper is just full of variables they consider "worth further study" that they just don't know how to evaluate. There is also this: "Admittedly this analysis does not account for the personnel on a team. For example, some teams may not have two good rebounders. In such a case sending two players to crash and one player to retreat might not have the same expected gain as it does when we consider aggregate data from all teams. This is an opportunity for further analysis." I am not sure Illinois has even one good rebounder. I think that makes the argument for getting back to avoid transition baskets all the stronger.
