Georgia Tech Basketball: By The Stats

Related Topics: Rebound (basketball), Basketball

Coming into this season, many fans expected a big change in the way this team plays, but in many ways this team looks like the late season Brian Gregory’s Jackets. Much was made of Josh Pastner’s plans for an uptempo offense. Last year the Jackets played at a pretty slow pace of 67.5 possessions per game, the 251st fastest in the country. While playing slightly faster this season, they are still below average at 69.2 possessions. My suspicion is that Pastner would love to play at a faster pace, but the team often lacks the talent and experience to make the split-second decisions to take advantage of numbers.
