Blackmon Effect (@lukewinn)

[Walking Boot of Doom]

Luke Winn conducted an efficiency analysis of Indiana before and after the loss of Blackmon. The effects in Indiana's offensive and defensive efficiency aren't surprising, but the net impact certainly makes you wonder what is driving the improved play since Blackmon's injury.

@lukewinn: In Power Ranx, I ran adjusted splits for Indiana with & w/o Blackmon. Better D, worse O. on.si.com/1nMe7cc

Good defense > good offense? Hmmmmm. Let me think about this.

There's no quantifying better team chemistry.

Those numbers with Blackmon are some what inflated due to the strength of our non-con schedule.

this. Due to competition, the stats are a bit skewed in blackmons favor

Adjusted efficiency takes into account the opponent it came against. Its kind of even more telling that our adjusted offensive efficiency has been better with Blackmon than without when you consider the games they've been absolutely unconscious from three have come without him.

How do you measure this? Curious

I value team defense. Teams that disrupt the opponent's offensive scheme and can get stops, increase the chances of defeating the opponent. Just my opinion, Boot.
