In response to SomeGuy
I think whether he is even outplaying Max is complicated, as well. If you take away the division 3 game and the Delaware state game, he’s a 50% free throw shooter, sub 30% from 3. His rebound rate was better in the very small sample size of the first 3 Ivy games, but again overall his rebounding numbers don’t look like much without the games against non division one talent.
The other thing to keep in mind is that he basically played every minute he could against Princeton and Cornell — he fouled out of one and got 4 in the other. So not the rotation limiting his minutes there.
In the light of day, I have to agree I went further with my conclusions than the data would necessarily support. I think what I'm saying could be true but also might not. I'm not as worried about the foul rate because Jarrod just seemed to go foul crazy in those two games (maybe also Monmouth). The rest of the games are 0 or 1 fouls). I continue to believe that a player that plays further from the rim on offense and doesn't get in AJ's and potential drivers to the hoop's way will unlock more for everyone.
