Nelson at 35% completely changes our offense
Yep, that’s 1.05 PPP with no O-boards. If you assume just 10% O-boards on his misses, that goes up to 1.15 PPP which is winning basketball.
I said back in November/December that Grant jacking 3s in March probably isn’t a winning strategy for us and still believe that to be true.
On a positive note, the posts about Oats understanding the tired legs is a HUGE DEVELOPMENT! Even with SDSU’s physical defense, I don’t think we shoot 11% from 3s on 27 attempts after several days off if Oats understood our guys needed more rest (it’s almost unfathomable that we shot 3-27 in that game).
And his use of TOs to stop runs quicker was much improved last game as well!
There’s literally only 2 things left, out of bounds plays (although he clearly saves a few for NCAAT) and offense/defense substitutions at the end of games (includes using TOs to make that happen).

We all need to keep in mind that Oats is still very early on the learning curve for major college BB. If he is open to learning, which he now appears to be more so than the first 2 or 3 years, we're in for some serious fun over the next 10-15 years.

Man its late March, all that complaining aint worth a damn.
Just hope for the best. Nobody gives a shite what you predicted back in Novemeber. We are in the Sweet Sixteen. Either support the team or stfu.

It’s not just a strict PPP thing.
1.15 PPP doesn’t fully explain the impact it would have from a spacing standpoint if he’s dragging a rim defender 25’ from the basket has on other players ability to convert at the rim.
