Time for Camakazee's neat-o stats of the night,
(sponsored by: Playing like shit all game, yet never letting them lead).
Pip's Guy:
- Tonight marks only the third time in which Sasha Pavlovic has shot 100% from the field and from the 3 point line.
- No stat, but his defense on Redd was pretty clutch in the 2nd half
The Big Fella:
- Tonight marks the 13th time in Z's career that he has recorded 17 or more total rebounds.
- This is only the 5th time that Z has recorded 23+ points and 17+ rebounds.
- Both the 17 rebounds and 23 points are season highs for Ilgauskas. Thanks for showing up when no one else did
For Whom the Bell Tolls:
- Tonight is 14th time in which Ben Wallace has recorded 10 or more rebounds, while logging 23 minutes or less.
- In tonight's game, Ben Wallace's stats per 36 minutes are as follows:
0 points, 15.7 rebounds, 4.7 assists.
His impact in limited minutes cannot be overlooked (especially since a great deal of his impact isn't found statistically).
View from the other side:
You heard it here first, I'm calling this one "the curse of the Oregon Luke's."
- So far in two games against the Cavaliers, Luke Ridnour is averaging:
16 ppg, 5 rpb, and 2.5 apg.
- While this is lower than his season average for apg (3.7), it's much higher than his ppg average (9.5) and higher than his rebounding average (3.2).
- Most importantly, his season high in 3pm (4) came tonight against the Cavs, while his former high (3) was against the Cavs. The man averages 0.6 3pm on the season, while he averages 3.5 3pm against the Cavs. I guess we felt bad that we took their Mo, so we made them think they have another :chuckles:
But until that can be scientifically proven, I'm settling for the theory that Luke Ridnour is the curse of Cavs fans for making the mistake of ever bad mouthing his Duck-mate Luke Jackson.
