Blazer Team Stats (through 10 games)

by timbo on Nov 16, 2008 11:18 PM PST Comment 87 comments

I've compiled a set of statistics for the first 10 games of the season and hopefully will be updating in a similar manner throughout the season every 10 games. These have been drastically reformatted, hopefully making things a little easier to read -- and documenting the numbers at this particular moment in time.

The numbers here were taken from the Blazers team page at nba.com, with one correction made (correct sum of TO = 106, not 111 as stated on the page — there are probably 5 "team turnovers" of some sort that I don't know about that are tallied...).

I have also calculated weighted averages PER 40 MINUTES PLAYED for Points, Rebounds, and Assists to help compare the relative production of part-time players with the starters and bench players like Rudy and Travis that see heavy action.

I might be digging up a few more stats from other sources and doing a little supplement to this table if I get a chance... We'll see.

Since the software shrinks the table beyond the point of legibility at the top, I will post it again immediately below -- hopefully that will be clean.

From Left to Right, the statistics here are:

G - Games Played

GS -Games Started

MIN - Minutes Played

MPG - Minutes Played Per Game

PTS - Points

PPG - Points Per Game

PP40 - Points Per 40 Minutes Played

FGM - Field Goals Made (including both 2 point and 3 point shots)

FGA - Field Goals Attempted

FG% - Field Goal Percentage

3PM - Three Point Shots Made

3PA - Three Point Shots Attempted

3P% - Three Point Shot Percentage

FTM - Free Throws Made

FTA - Free Throws Attempted

FT% - Free Throw Percentage

REB - Rebounds (Sum of Offensive and Defensive)

RPG - Rebounds Per Game

R40 - Rebounds Per 40 Minutes Played

AST - Assists

APG - Assists Per Game

A40 - Assists Per 40 Minutes Played

TO - Turnovers (total)

ST - Steals (total)

BLK - Blocks (total)

I've got a few observations to make about this group of numbers, but I reckon I can make them in the discussion area below just as easily.

Or you can open it via a link from my server at GAMES10.jpg if that’s easier.

That’s at least readable…

Anyway, one observation is that Oden's rebounding and Pryz's rebounding PER 40 MINUTES thus far seems highly comparable -- 13.5 for Oden and 13.6 for Pryz...

While admittedly a small sample size for Oden’s rebounding, it’s a very promising thing — as Pryz is one of the top rebounders in the league on a per minute basis.

Yeah

For Greg to be doing that well already is promising.

by jscot on Nov 16, 2008 11:35 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs

That stuck out to me too

And I didn’t expect that, since Joel really gobbles up theh rebounds whenever he is in the game and Oden had 2 low rebounding games (or was it only one, the Miami game? On 2nd thought I guess Oden had 5 boards in the 13 minutes he played against the Lakers…).

It’s definitely an encouraging stat that could get even better as he continues to get in shape.

I’m surprised Joel only has 6 blocks. Not long ago in similar minutes he’d average 1.5 or 2. He isn’t going for everything since we need him, but he seems to have blocked more shots than just 6… perhaps the stat men aren’t totalling all of them to add to the lack of respect Joel gets league wide.

Roy’s FT% is good to see, after last year, but not as good to see to counter act how horrible to see LMA’s FT% be. UGH.

Thanks for posting the stats, Timbo!

Second, while I LOATHE Sergio's shooting, I note that Frye's is just as bad, and Travis' is not much better...

……………………………. Which means it’s time to start spewing bile in more directions or else chilling a little until Sergio’s flat jumpers retreat below the “Rodriguez LIne” (.350).

I'm surprised to see Frye's % that low.

His shot is so smooth— its the only thing he’s good at. I expect that number to go up. Sergio’s and Travis’s… not so much. Travis has taken more shots than Rudy this season. That needs to change.

May be ankle-related

Remember, he came back 3 weeks early from his surgery – perhaps he still hasn’t gotten his legs quite under him.

When you consider 2-pt shots only, he's at .407.

Not much better, but it’s not as bad as .379 sounds.

meanwhile

if you take away sergio’s 3pt attempts, he is shooting 54%. and yes, half of those were layups.

by sergioFTW on Nov 17, 2008 10:37 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs

I don't think anybody has a problem with Sergio taking and making layups...

…………………… the problem is that the Blazer offense is going to be constructed around teams doubling down on Oden low i the key, creating open perimeter jumpers for 3 point snipers. And that is not Sergio, phrasing things in the most polite way possible. Sergio needs to be liberated to play for a more wide open team, be that in the NBA or abroad…

That's a continuation from last year...

LMA has never been an efficient scorer – too many long twos, too few foul shot attempts. That’s why his win score is so low. Somehow, some way, he needs to get it through his head that jacking a twenty-two footer is NOT the goal, even if he is open…

There are a few things holding this team back from making “the jump” to being a true contender:

1) LMA needs to play inside out, not the other way around
2) Travis needs to quit taking bad shots (more on that below)
3) Need more (both creating shots, and playing D) from the PG spot

Two of these three things could happen with existing personnel, and would go a long, long way towards making sure a playoff spot (possibly in the 4-6 range) gets locked down. If those things don’t change, despite a promising beginning, the Blazers could find themselves slugging it out with Dallas for the 8 spot.

If those things happen AND (whether this year or next) a PG comes in through a trade or free agency, B-Rex snaps into the right mentality for the position, or Sergio gains Nate’s confidence and keeps the TOs low, watch out L*kers…

Inside the arc, Sergio is shooting 6 for 11 which is .545. If we can keep Sergio from shooting from distance, we’d all feel better.

He takes very few shots, relatively speaking, so it's a small sample size...

……………………….. He’s basically decent driving to the rack (rare) and basically terrible from distance, although he did get a couple to fall in the Minnesota game which brought up his numbers a bit…

These statements are both right -- and I am of the opinion that Sergio isn't and won't be a threat for the perimeter 3, so he should be moved along to a team running an offense for which he is better suited.

Ifyou remove 3 points goals and attempts from sergio's stats you will see he is shooting above 50%

Although 11 attempts are so low to make a trend. He should shot inside the arc.

oden’s blocks @ 10 in 77 minutes, and the next highest is LMA at 13 blocks, in 370 minutes!

Yes, exactly. Which means that Oden actually IS going to be qualitatively different at the pivot than Pryz... He's going to alter the world in the paint...

Continuing the per 40 stat, Joel’s blocks per 40 is right at 1, LMA is about 1.5, Greg is just over 5!

Third -- in his extremely limited minutes thus far, Oden is already very nearly the team leader in blocks.

More Oden's D

This is what Centers are doing against Oden per 48 minutes:

FG% 0.333, FTA 1.8, Reb 11.7, A 0.9, T/O 2.7, Blk 3.6, PF 8.1, PTS 6.3, PER 6.3

33% FG shooting is bad.
8.1 PF is crazy. He is drawing a ton of fouls already.
6.3 Pts is not a lot. Sure, he has not faced Shaq or Howard, but still.
A PER of 6.3 is really low.
11.7 rebounds sounds like a lot, but in 48 minutes for a center it’s not a ton.

Nice

Extremely small sample, but EXTREMELY promising, at the same time.

I can tell you that, as the season goes on, Oden’s intimidation factor will only increase. Saw it in college. He’s already influencing every shot within 8-10 feet. He will get his wind back and cover ground MUCH more quickly.

When that happens, watch out, anybody looking to drive after abusing the perimeter D… you just became a top play nominee on Sportscenter for all the wrong reasons…

sergio

I’m impressed with his rebounding and assist. I think he is improved this year. And he did hit those important 3’s in the wolves game, and there was another game he got a couple of layups. I’m not a crazy ‘sergio is the greatest in the world’ guy, but I do think he is running
the team really well this year. I imagine that’s why bayless is not getting PT, in the little bit i’ve
seen he seems to have a hard time running the offense. They will both continue to improve and I’m happier than I thought with the point situation.

Trout is shooting 23 for 68 on twos...

While seldom drawing fouls. That’s abysmal, ugly, depressing.

His ridiculous three point barrage has disguised a horrendous shooting performance from inside the arc.

Nate should tell him that if he shoots another contested jumper or (even worse) fade away with more than 8 seconds on the shot clock, he’s sitting the rest of the game.

Shots the Blazers needed him to take last year, they no longer need him to take. In fact, they (very badly) need him NOT to take them. Travis takes worse shots than Roy and Rudy, who are much better equipped to make the shots Travis takes but choose not to shoot them because they are still terrible shots.

Notice how good teams over the past few years (Spurs, Suns, Lakers, Celtics) do not let their role players take bad shots? No deep twos and NEVER, EVER any contested or fade away deep twos. Trout needs to take OPEN shots, either from three or from eighteen and in – and that’s it.

One of my pet peeves

The stat of FG% is misleading. It needs to be 2-Pt FGA% and 3-Pt FGA%. Back in the days of the old ABA that’s the way they did it.

Travis is shooting .338 from 2-Pt range. The average fan doesn’t realize it but I’m sure KP and his stat gurus do.

That has been bugging me this season.

How terrible he is inside the arc. He tries so hard to create his own shot that it is just ugly. Can’t watch him shoot his fade-away brick anymore. He obviously doesn’t pass the ball enough…1.9 AP40?!? UGLY. Luckily for him he has been hitting his 3’s when he’s open.

This is what I have noticed about Trout's shot selection

This year instead of doing his patented one dribble jump over people jump shot (in which he is in control and square to the hoop), he is actually trying to make an effort to drive to the hoop. However he is either stopping after 2 or 3 dribbles and shooting some type of off balanced runner or he gets to the hoop but is floating instead of exploding and getting his shots blocked or he isn’t square. I like that Travis is trying to do what we have implored him to do, he just needs to perfect it. As we know with Trout it takes him a while, but the results are usually fairly good. However he only has until Martell gets back to get a better grip on this or he may see some more bench time.

The ugly part is how often he passes up an open 3 for a terrible 2.

Although he has been improving on that lately. We all know he can hit those 3s, so he should take them whenever they’re open, instead of dribbling into a defender and fading away.

Nice Timbo, you're the new Stat-Bo of Blazerland.

The biggest thing that pops out to me are the low turnover numbers.

If I’m not mistaken, I think the Blazers average the fewest (at least top 5) turnovers per game.

Most of the Blazers don’t come close to qualifying for the Eddy Curry line (a player must average more turnovers than assists, steals and blocks combined).

FYI here are the NBA leaders of the Eddy Curry line:

so here are some GOALS for the next 10 games

1-lamarcus shoot 74% FT (not total, just for next 10, to build on)
2-travis 45% FG (that’s reasonable….3s will go down some)
3-sergio shoot above 40% FG

the above seem very doable. others can add other goals. these are what i would like to see for now.

Sergio is shooting .545 from 2-Pt range

He needs to quit shooting 3’s.

Greg to play 25 mpg

Opposing coaches to weep in despair over the future after at least 6 of the 10 games.

37 Assists to 9 turnovers....as many rebounds as blake yet half the total min.

START SERGIO!

Sergio and Blake

When Oden gets to the starting line up and if he is averaging ten points per game or more then we can safely put Sergio in. Until that point we will lose too much offense.
