I crunch some numbers. One of them is Scoring Efficiency, a measure of how efficiently a player scores - pretty straightforward. Anything over 6 is good. 7+ is awesome.
Scoring Efficiencies from Preseason 1
Davis 7.86
Hil 6.41
Kobe 6.31
Nash 6.22
Clarkson 5.89
Johnson 5.48
Randle 5.25
Sacre 4.85
Boozer 4.65
Ellington 4.61
LIn 1.72
I'll post the passing, hustle efficiencies, and Synergy if I have a chance. Lots of grading to do today.
Boozer's thoughts on Randle's first preseason game: LINK
He will prove to be a necessary veteran influence for Randle. He seems like a big brother to Randle. He is very well-spoken, and can still contribute. He will probably be the most under-appreciated player this season, and will probably give us many headaches due to his increasingly old-man play, but like I say, he is going to be crucial to Randle's development. Go Boozer!
I have to admit he wasn't my first choice but the more I hear and see him, I will concede that he's winning me over. I also posted a link that you guys will enjoy; as always, when thread(s) are created, IMO, they are for debate, criticism, praise.
Most of you have probably seen this, but I'm posting this for the few that have missed it. If you click on Events from the toolbar at the top of the page it directs you to a site calendar with all this season's Lakers games.
