More games these days though, correct?
Anyway, scoring is nice. Scoring *efficiently* is the name of the game, however. Randle is shooting 40% from the floor and 36% from the three point line. That's pretty mediocre.
Here's the KenPom offensive rankings for Stanford over the course of Randle's career:
14-15 (so far): 32
13-14: 66
12-13: 43
11-12: 104
Averagish, we'll say. This doesn't suggest a player who's contributing something the stats can't see very well, which leaves us with an low-to-average efficiency volume scorer. That's a helpful, but by no means spectacular player. Given Randle's debut season and his skill profile, I think that's disappointing -- he could've done much better.
...
Anyway, my main beef with Dawkins these days is his insistence on a pick-and-roll defensive scheme that sucks Nastic out to the perimeter for long periods, which is emphatically not his game.
