    Yeah, but I also showed that our fastbreak points increased significantly post-ASB, and our early shotclock possessions did, too.

    But you didn’t respond/acknowledge my posts ;)

    bottomline: the Pace stat is not always a good indicator of up tempo play, and there are other available stats to add to the discussion.

    fast-break points, shot-clock stats are better indicators since they are independent of the other team (see my post above). I looked at shotclock comparing february and march and february looked a little faster.

    In the end, I couldn't find much evidence to conclude that they were faster when sengun was out or that they were faster because sengun was out. Again playing faster was a theme throughout the season, nothing new when sengun went down.

    And to add, Coach flat-out said increased pace was a point of emphasis coming out of the ASB. I previously posted the quote.

    Sengun was injured not VanVleet. VanVleet is notorious for walking the ball up the court.,

    When Jalen Green, Amen got the ball it was buckle up and let's go.

    Sengun injured March 10th
    JG4 6.6 Rebs / game from March 12th - April 14th
    Amen 9.2 Rebs / game from March 12th - April 14th

    I know you got internet.....look it up

    Because they're the rabid fans they like to pretend the Green fans are, and have been since the day he was drafted.

    Its fascinating. You hit them with some equal energy when they come in here guns blazing and then they resort to a thought "months ago" about a race discussion we had about college thesis' surrounding the slave trade and delving into the inadequacies of the black experience in the USA. To equate that somehow to an intellectual rib because I said their hero cant make a jump shot or defend a traffic cone and tie into race lets me know what it is off top. As much as some things change others will ALWAYS stay the same.

    They've been trying the bullshit race nonsense from the start tbh. It's very easy to see all the masses of posts accusing Silas of racism etc. The irony is how much of a dog whistle it comes across as when a bunch of white fans complain about "racism" whilst ******** on everybody who isn't their great white hope.

    Says the bigoted dinosaur who cant help himself from showing his ass after stewing for months on the history lesson he was given. You going to try and tell me what my experience should be again? So offended that his hero has flaws that he would be willing to expose his own skeletons in defense. Typical mediocre bullsht from you people.

    Imagine being you --- harboring this whitewashed version of a reality that is so vexing that he needed to jump front and center on a Sengun criticism with racial undertones. Ignorant old assholes like you are the problem with the world.
