FF Box Score for 10-31 (and 10-30)

Tracked both teams, but only bothering with posting the (very nice looking) Wizards' side of the box.

Four Factors Wiz Box 10-31 versus Nets

Continue on for a few observations about last night's box and also for the Wiz portion of the box from the loss to the Hawks (thanks go to Rook for tracking that one).

Star-divide

Notes:

  • Arenas again didn't get burned by playing off his man, as, like with Dallas, the Nets' guards couldn't take advantage from outside.
  • Oberto and Blatche both did well contesting shots and defending the pick and roll, combining to allow only 5 of 18.5
  • Stevenson and Haywood each created a net of 2 extra possessions (net margin of offensive rebounds grabbed/allowed and turnovers forced/committed)
  • Amazingly efficient shooting night from Arenas and Blatche  (mostly at the expense of Alston, Yi, and Najera)
  • Miller had an efficient enough night offensively, and did some other good things, but got burned by the officials and some bad luck.
  • I didn't include assists here, but Arenas-Foye-Oberto combined for 20 of them.

 

Expanded Box 10-30 vs Hawks

 

  • They gave away too many possessions (particularly Arenas) and didn't create enough extra ones to get away with a mediocre shooting night.
  • Dre's weakest defensive line didn't help.
  • Miller and Stevenson had some costly fouls.

PERs

Strong PERs so far for Arenas and Blatche, but McGee also is at 22.

Is 82games.com going to post stats for 5-man units this year?

Either he fixed it or it's not

Because that’s definitely the Nets game.

You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.

It's good for me now

Don’t know what was wrong

Another thing to look at is the number of fouls Arenas is drawing… 22 in 3 games … and he’s getting to the line an average of 8.3 times a game; AND remember, he didn’t get many calls in the Atlanta game.

He’s always been one of the best in the league at getting to the line, but he’s surpassing his career average (7.4) so far this year.
