⛹️‍♂️ Elijah Gertrude - Official Thread

Dude - I’m not criticizing him. I’m analyzing him.

Here is what I said:

A) well, that’s just a true statement. duh.
B) my real point is (and I realize I didn’t make this clear, but I was mostly just trying to rile up @DFresh11), if he were coming into the game and draining his shots at a high percentage, I bet he would be playing a lot more, which I would like to see, which is why it would be better if he made them.

The ball came loose so if the refs thought the defender hit the ball then it was legal to land first.

If Eli is not pulled down on the arm on that, he was going to deliver an all time hammer on like 3 dudes.

A.
Ok- your analysis is accurate just as would an analysis that states scoring more points than your opponent regularly will give you a better win/loss record.

B. My real point in my comment was to point out that we should apply that same analysis to Harris, and by that analysis, Eli should get some of Harris’ minutes because Harris hits fewer shots than Eli.

I have repeatedly pointed this out but some of you people just won’t listen

Next time I’m the head coach of this team I promise to take that into consideration

With your in depth analytical skills - no doubt you will soon be appointed a Head Coach WFS, if that is a role worthy of your time. :rofl:. All good - Go Hoos and go Eli.

Also fun little nugget… if the refs had called a foul and then ruled that he landed before the release… then by rule the basket doesn’t count and he would get 2 free throws
