Deep Inside the Numbers: Opposing Guard Scoring Part 2

In part 1 I covered the box score specifics of who scored when on the Cincinnati Bearcats In part 2, I go to the video of Presbyterian and every game since Georgia to find out exactly how the spotlighted players got their points. The things I’ll be looking for are

1. Where on the court they scored
2. Time of basket
3. What type of play it was
4. Who was guarding them

This tells us that the Bearcats get taken off the dribble a lot. They are also a little too wild sometimes on defense, and get lost from their man. When you look at the individual numbers, it’s kind of not really a surprise. I’ll tell you what, at the beginning of this Sean Kilpatrick was way out in the lead. Mutakabbir lit him up like a Christmas tree. Since then, he’s done a nice job. Cash had the unfortunate task of guarding Wayns and Napier. Cash does a funny thing when someone hits a shot over him. He throws his hands up as if he’s saying “What the fuck?” It’s funny. You’ll notice it every time now. All in all, I think this is a fine representation of the Cincinnati guard defense. Enjoy.
