Markus & Joey
« on: February 13, 2019, 01:42:31 PM »
Joey has not been playing the way we all know he can play. During the game you could see Joey was frustrated with himself and during a play late in the game Markus got in Joey's face telling him not to be so down on himself and if I could read lips Markus was just telling him to stay focused. That is something Wojo's teams have been missing...upper classman leadership.

i was just going to ask this question in a different thread-

  was it encouraging joey or was it that joey almost took his frustration out on another player?  i am not insinuating in any way.  as markus got very demonstrative with joey, i was trying to do a mental replay of what had just happened previously.  i guess i could have used the dvr function, but...i didn't. 

if that was what markus was doing...that's really cool!!  leader of the pack eyn'a?

Before they cut to commercial, the last thing Markus was saying is, "You're fine!"  He was encouraging him, without a doubt.  Markus continues to impress in all ways.

I did go back to watch the exchange again.  what i was able to read was "Hey, Listen to me, You're fine" as markus was grabbing joey's jersey.  That's some serious leadership.

Joey had just gotten fouled while missing a shot.  I could read Markus' lips saying "Don't do that!  Don't do that!  You're fine."  Joey had some body language showing that he was getting really frustrated and Markus clearly didn't want to see that.  Joey followed up by making both free throws.

Just an amazing kid. I have no idea what his future holds, but if the circumstances are right, I would LOVE to have him back with the program down the road. Maybe coaching, strength & conditioning, or whatever. Maybe even BOT someday like Ulice or Doc. The sky is the limit for Markus.

I agree.  Markus continues to grow as an impressive leader.  He will be successful in life. Joey is a tremendous player who has hit a freshman slump.  Hopefully, Markus and Sam can pull him out of it soon.

There are lots of 'uncontested' points to be had. If FT's were 'free' and it was not true that #FTsNoMatta, history would show the average is always around 70%.

(btw, efficiency is based on points... the thing is, even a team with a bad FT% is extremely offensively efficient when it comes to shooting free throws. There isn't such a thing as 'an inefficient free throw shooting team'. There is one team shooting less than 59% this season out of 353 teams.. even their 56.7% results in very efficient offense)

Bruh, you know I can't understand you when you don't bruh enough.  Bruh. 

But Bruh, Creighton has lost 2 huge games in OT.  I wonder if they would share your sentiment bruh, you know, as a still efficient, but worst FT shooting team in the conference.

Nope. Jay Bee can be an arse about it, but on this point he is right. Team FT% matters very little in winning a basketball game. It's obviously better to shoot a better FT% than not, but it is a stat that gets a disproportionate amount of attention by fans. eFG%, OR%, TO%, and FTR. These are the stats that can truly impact a game.

Does it, though?  I rarely ever hear anyone discuss a team's free throw percentage.  With very rare exception, the only time free throw shooting is brought up is when it costs a team an individual game, in which case the free throw shooting very, very much mattered.  I hardly ever hear people discussing free throw percentage when talking about who could win a national title, who the favorite to win a certain conference are, when breaking down a matchup, etc.

So in reality, the only people really bringing up team season long free throw shooting percentages are those that cry about free throws not mattering...

During the timeout, 3 or 4 players were around Joey encouraging him.  Wojo pushed everyone away, and spent about 10 seconds talking to Joey as Joey was just nodding yes to everything that was said.  Both Nelson and Johnson were in his ear again leading out of the timeout.  This team seems to be in great hands.

The stats impact the game...or the game creates the stats, which leads to the perception that the stats are impacting the game?
