Specifically, look at the K-State points per minute with Vick on the floor. Vick played 18.5 minutes. In that time, the Wildcats scored at a rate of 2.75 points per minute. That is compared to 1.07 points per minute with Vick on the bench. That is astounding. Our defense pathetic or non-existent with Vick on the floor. Was it his fault? You be the judge. Moore played 20 minutes and the Wildcats scored only 1.2 points per minute in that time. This is an indicator stat not a definitive one. But what it indicates is not good for Mr. Vick. It is not been good for him all year. Nor is it good for Mr. Grimes.

Couple that with KU having its lowest PPM with Vick on the floor, and it's a double whammy.

My intuition with Grimes and Vick on the floor at the same time is that our turnovers are likely at their highest percentage. Those two are turnover machines. Even when Grimes shoots, it's almost a turnover given his poor percentage makes.

I noted in the last couple games that when Grimes actually drives and shoots, his shots miss so wildly that the result is usually a change of possession.

Grimes and Vick playing at the same time was painful to watch.

I loved how the announcers assumed Vick had 3 fouls which kept him on the bench at the start of the 2nd half. I was yelling at them that he had NO fouls. I guess they eventually heard me. No mystery to me why he was sitting if you saw the first 4 minutes.
