Yes, thats a lot of numbers, but its the whole season. Its only for NU games against the Big Ten.
The season-ending blow out loss really tanked several players' Plus/Minus.
Perf is NU pts / Opponent Pts. PerfAdj is the same ratio after the adjustment for individual performance.
By any reasonable measure, Pete Nance was the best player on the team.
Chase Audige was the worst performer in the rotation, while playing the 2nd most minutes.
I put the "WinShares" column in there since it isn't my statistic, so something to compare to. A WinShare of 0.1 means you are an average player in the Big Ten. If you multiply it by 5 you can equate it to a winning percentage that your team deserved based on your play. So Pete Nance played at a level that deserved 68% wins. Of course, WinShares is based purely on the box score itself - its a projection - and misses all the intangibles.
The two worst combinations from a Plus/Minus perspective were Ryan Young with Robbie Beran (0.785) and Julian Roper with Ty Berry (0.80).
Those numbers do not bode well for next year, when Young and Beran project as the starting frontcourt. Perhaps the chemistry will improve...
Lineups that consisted of 5 players not named Greer, Nance or Williams played a total of 98 minutes and got beat 176-152.
