A possible stat:<br /><br />
<p>Distance on timed shots (Dots)</p>
<p>Thinking here about last-second shots. Eliminate the half-court bombs and dunks and then calculate the average distance on less dramatic winners (probably inside the foul circle or just outside the paint: 10-12 feet).</p>
<p>This number would be useful in drawing up a final play, like North Carolina should have done last night against Duke instead of just &ldquo;creating&rdquo; a shot and ultimately forcing two shots.</p>
<p>This number would tell the players where to be waiting for a pass on either side of the lane or up the middle. The guard with the ball would know where his teammates were going to be and then could choose the best option quickly.</p>
<p>Otherwise, it&rsquo;s bombs and rebounds and chaos.</p>
