hmm this sounds familiar.



actually looking into their stats a bit more, they are better shooters than they've shown early this year. weatherspoon and peters are combined 7-47 from 3 this year but both shot 37% last year.

Which means they will get hot tonight from 3.

but i am still really wondering what i've manipulated. i gave troys 40% season as an example of what small sample sizes can do, then showed what troys % was after many many more attempts. i really dont understand where you think im being biased.
If Troy made 40 percent by being selective in his soph year and Jennifer is doing the same now... what is the problem? Nobody is saying JJ should be pumping 6 three's per game. He can obviously make an open shot. Nobody is saying for JJ to bomb contested shots. I don't see the correlation. JJ is not a volume shooter and nobody wants him to be. Troy shot volume (last year) but we had better options...and one of those was not KJ.

he shot 40% because shot selection AND sample size. it was too small. troys freshman year he had an even smaller sample size and assuming the same only taking good shots only shot 32%.



what im saying is you cannot say jenifer can continue to shoot 37% because the sample size is too small and is greatly skewed by 3 games.


you probably thought it was unfair to take out the 3 best games. so lets chop out the 3 best and 3 worst from his career. comes to a 32.8% from 3.


the 3 great games were outliers. cannot rely on data when it can shift so quickly with only a few more attempts.

Lots of chatter about JJ. Hysterical considering the kid wouldnt start at any other top 100 basketball program. Hes like a poor mans khalid el amin or mateen cleaves. Lets get real here. He should NOT get significant minutes. Hes a bonafide backup PG and sub. If JJ gets as many minutes as this discussion has generated, ill see everyone in the NIT. PERIOD

I would take 33 percent from a non prolific 3 point shooter on select shots. We have been getting that percentage from our volume 3 guys the last couple of years in Troy and JJ. Most of our Cronin years have been filled with volume guys shooting bad percentages.

Let's not forget

10 minutes til tip and not much of a home court advantage.

Let’s hope 2 losses hasn’t scared every one away

crowd was always late arriving at 5/3, add in the traffic difficulties of nku's arena and good luck getting them there early.
