A lot of great info here, team and individual wise.

Pau posts up 32% of the time, and has a FG% of 42.4%.
Taj posts up 28.9% of the time, and has a FG% of 46%.
Jimmy posts up 7.8% of the time, and has a FG% of 49.1%.

There are some other interesting things you can see from that too, like % of turnovers on such play for the players, shooting fouls drawn, score freq, etc.

Rose has an eFG% of .557 on iso's.

Have at it. I don't mind if you guys post tidbits that you find that are of the non-Bulls variety.

Thanks, great info.

Maybe the last few holdouts will now shut their yaps arguing about Pau's post ups. Among players that post up 30% of the time or more, which is 16 players, Gasol has the 4th worst FG%.

Expand it to 25% and he's still in the bottom half.

Derrick still showing he's a great one on one player.

93 percentile on iso offense. And yet he still chooses to jack 3s.

Some random defensive observations based on PPP:

-The whole team is average to bad at contesting spot-up shooters.
-Jimmy Butler's numbers are fairly underwhelming for a guy who has a reputation as a stopper.
-Pau is an AWFUL iso defender (1.11 PPP).
-Small sample size, but Tony Snell allows .4 PPP in iso situations.
-Derrick's numbers are surprisingly solid, despite the obvious deficiencies we see from game to game.

Transition frequency:

Westbrook: 25.5%
Wall: 22.8%
Rose: 18.5%

I'd like to see this come up. Some missing efficiency right here.

Derrick Rose on iso defense: .76 Real solid.

Now just got to fight over those screens.

maybe i'm seeing things that others aren't, but doesn't rose seem to lazily bring the ball up until he is "engaged" by a defender? often ending in a lazy pass to a wing in the halfcourt

More than he used to perhaps.

The old Derrick Rose would look for any chance to run, now it seems more at his own random whim. Sometimes he would even run with 2 or 3 defenders back, and still beat them for a score or foul his MVP year.

sounds right

just seems i'm seeing a lot of the head back, high dribble, legs shuffling behind the beat, middle aged man with bad knees bringing the ball up at the Y

No, there's a separate category for that. I assume the majority of these possessions are guys facing him up and going right past, likely a mix of bigs and smaller guys from switches. Getting burned on switches is yet another reason why the Bulls can't contain ball handler PnR possessions.

This is the real face palm thing about our system, even though we have Gasol fall back on all PnR's to defend the rim due to his slow foot speed, sometimes people still blow by him, even when he's within feet of the rim!

I know this isn't related to this stat in that its purely iso vs him, but the same weakness of his leads to both cases.

Anthony Davis averages 1.22 points as a roll man for pick and roll. I saw that stat and said "hahaha, what?" I feel you all should know that.

dice · Post #16 » by **dice** » Thu Feb 12, 2015 10:35 pm

points per putback attempt:

1.35 aldridge
1.33 gasol (2nd in league for high attempt totals)
0.99 taj
0.93 noah
0.84 t thompson (worst in league)

Noted this the other day, though I didn't have the exact rankings, Gasol makes a killing on off rebs.

This is why Derrick has to stop shooting 3s and start driving regardless of miss/make, let Pau and Noah clean it up.

Mean while, Kyle Korver is at 1.53 on spot up shooting. 99.5 percentile x-)
