But does anyone have some idea WTF is going on with Lenz? Yes, I was expecting some drop off because the schedule is much mo difficult, but this fall into the marianas trench just has me baffled.

Suddenly he can't shoot and can't hit threes, can't hit the broadside of a barn and it's as if he's wearing blinders and randomly chucking the ball.

Is he getting doubled up? I mean, he is really good but it dépends on how the other teams adjust. He is not having that bad a season though.

A: mostly press defense's, so no not getting doubled up. And b ..l ok at the last five games or so. Fallen off a cliff.

Did you increase his distro relative to the rest of the team? I know at some point there is a limit where they get less efficient if they take too many shots.

Team passing is a bit low.  Did you lose some solid passers last season?

I think you've already answered it. (and you are overstating the direness)

in last 5 games the guy is 33.3%from 3. for the rest of the season he's about 10% higher. But the whole team has dropped these 5 games. Because the opponents are better. 

He has stilled scored 16, 15, 17, 26, 21 over this 5 game span, and team is 4-1...

3s attempted per game is a pretty small statistical sample. 1 or 2 makes or misses can dramatically alter the % either way. his worst % over these games was 4-15 (26.7%) one more make and he's 33.3, 2 more and he's .400...

Like I said, over the last 5 he is 33% more or less. One more make per game (23-54 instead of 18-54) and he is right at 42.5%, or just about his season average minus these games. So he's basically missing one more per game...

And the next game is 4-12 ...

ars are you being for real come on this is getting ridiculous, you just beat the #2 team in the nation.  And the guy on lens was 67 ath 81 spd 66 def.

Clearly you won't be happy with any outcome no matter what. 4/12 and scoring 16 points against the #2 team is completely respectable.  jeezus

4-12 with six turnovers isn't good in many books. I'm happy with the game obviosly, just baffled by the player

You had to expect him to slide back from his performance last year, increased usagealmostnever brings increased efficiency. I'm a bit surprised actually that he hasn't had any other huge TO performances, doubling him and his 38 passing is such an obvious tack. You've had some luck there. I think you're overreacting a bit, he's good, but he's not so amazing that I wouldn't expect some bad games.

But, anyway, on to the new game.  New gameplan not involving scoring from him coming about, as he appears to not be a viable weapon.  On to PBAU.

These have been press teams though, so no doubling is going on.
 

Press teams double the ball every trip

Now down to six points.

Ah well...
