PPS - 12/10

Below is the Player Productivity Scores for the guys in the game against Bowling Green State University.  Heading into this game I used PPS for both teams to help me predict a Valpo Victory.  Let's see what the PPS says about each teams' productivity to further assist me in knowing whether this is a stat worth keeping.  We'll look at both teams top 6 guys in terms of minutes played.

Valpo
R. Broekhoff    1.22857
K. VanWijk       1.00000
*E. Buggs        0.53333
**M. Kenney       0.4
J. Harris           0.71429
W. Bogan         0.16667

*DNP in the second half due to injury
**Monster dunks count as a normal field goal

Looking at Valpo's scores the Crusaders really need Will Bogan to start hitting a few more jump shots.  We have one guard already who really isn't a scoring threat in Buggs, but we can't have two. Let's get that shot falling!  Matt's score might be lower then expected.  He was hampered by the four turnovers he was credited with.  Turnovers also kept KVW's score from being even higher.  He had a case of the brick hands last night it seemed.

BGSU
S. Thomas       0.64864
A. Calhoun      1.12903
C. Sealey         0.375
J. Crawford     0.71429
D. Brown        0.63333
T. Oglesby     -0.05556

Crawford's score could've been better if he hadn't turned it over 4 times.  Calhoun had a nice score, and it could've been even better had he not missed 8 field goal attempts.

We'll keep looking at these numbers and hopefully can eventually come to a conclusion on the value of this statistic.
