I was disappointed we didn't pound Eastern by 35 after 40.
With the NET and other metrics taking points/victory margins into account, this is kind of important. Need to balance getting the bench time with piling up the metrics on blowouts. Richmond, for example, has blown out their two sub 200 opponents mercilessly and moved up something like 40 spots in KenPom, into the top 100. We only outscored EIU by 1 point in the 2nd half of the game, leaving a few spots in the metrics on the table. Shouldn't let fluffing the numbers control decisions, but it IS a factor.
