The Chief All-American

I would have to say, he was easily BYU's best scorer.

What do the advanced metrics say about our best players last year?

I’m excited about Demin & Catchings too, but man…Saunders is a menace.

Saunders was our best player during conference play last year and is

He got into the heads of nc state players….who eventually went to final 4

Premature conclusions. By mid season, it is possible CBers could be hailing 3 different guys as team's best players.

Please let me know where in my post I stated he was the best player on the team?

Those three are candidates for our best player

Maybe. There are others. Consider last year how views shifted month to month and went through the entire rotation,

Not mine. I thought Jax was our best player last year.

The stats say you were very wrong

Jax is not liked by stats as he is low efficiency, low rebound, low assist guy

kimdaddy35

Nov 8, 1:03pm

So it's your opinion that stats alone determine who the "best" player is?

Archaea

Nov 8, 1:23pm

100%

Nov 8, 1:30pm

A. He was the player who could create his own

So basically he was the best to you because he had potential

NBA front offices say he was.

You are confusing potential with best. They aren't the same thing.

You are confusing effort with talent.

Not at all. I look at stats. If scoring, rebounding, assisting, blocking,

Both came off the bench. Who was voted the Big 12, sixth man of the year?

Opposing teams designed their defenses to guard Jax. Nobody did that for Richie.

Yes foul shots aren't quantifiable and neither are assists from passing out of

JR was a low efficiency volume shooter, 29.8% from 3 in conference

I mean its pretty clear those three dudes are amazing bball players

The Chief

Nov 8, 12:43pm

Not sure I totally agree that he is a “known commodity”

PumaFanatico

Nov 8, 1:03pm

But he was probably our 1st or 2nd best player last year in conference

The Chief

Nov 8, 1:24pm

Seems like you've done the same in years past during off-season practices.

I agree, people on CB were already writing off Baker, after a sample size of

I am rooting for Dawson. Cracking this lineup for big PT is a real challenge.
