I asked Penny Hardaway earlier after Memphis’ win over ECU about his thoughts on margin of victory and its impact on computer numbers (NET, KenPom, etc.):

“I don’t follow (the metrics), but I understand what (they mean). There are teams that when they have (opponents) down 20, they try to get it to 30, because of the NET and KenPom.”

Said Tigers are simply “still trying to get to the level of winning as a team the right way.”
