The kenpom rating actually wouldn’t change much at all. It’s purely statistical and tracks based on 4 quarters per game. 3 points in a different direction wouldn’t affect our Off and Def efficiency much at all.
OP is right. Matt Painter has been doing this all year. A smart coach takes advantage of EVERY loophole they can. It kills a 2 for 1.

Jordan was by far the worst. That purdue game where they literally had more rebounds than we had points really goes to show he wasn’t joking with that statement.
I mean the chances of him getting drafted are about the chances of me winning the next power ball ... So it does seem like that is a good thing (as opposed to him entering the portal)
