more interesting stats. These are totals for the season. I was somewhat surprised by this.
our top 3 scorers by average per game are JHo, Terry, and Dirk in that order. But, JHo missed some games.
So, our top scorer as to total points scored this season is Terry with only 6 more points for the season than Dirk.
Terry-184 points
Dirk-176 points
JHo-160 points
After those three, it drops to 89 by Devin. Stack is nearly an identical 87 and then Bass is next with 75.
Total minutes played are also interesting. Dirk is in a class by himself with 323 minutes played. The second most minutes belong to our sixth man of the season, Terry. That doesn't make Terry sound like a sixth man with his 289 minutes played. After that you drop to Diop with 252 minutes and JHo with 232 minutes. Would you believe that Stackhouse has played more minutes than Devin? He has (228 to 181 minutes). As a matter of fact, Bass's 179 minutes are essentially identical to Devin.
If you go by total minutes played, our real "starters" are:
Dirk, Terry, Diop, JHo, Stack. Interestingly, that works for a lineup as to positions. The real 6th and 7th men are Devin and Bass. Trent Hassel is the distant 8th man.
Fun stats: Dampier has scored more points and has fewer fouls than Trent Hassel...
The stats don't show support for the idea that:
1)Dirk is playing fewer minutes
2)Dirk is taking fewer shots as the offense is going elsewhere
