I have a hearing disorder and really appreciate you for adding your own subtitles to this video. It really improves the quality of watching for me. Thanks!!!
Man I’m so glad to hear that. Count on them to stick in all my videos from here on out

Could you elaborate on the difference between "best player" and "high percentage attacker"? On the net, is the best player not the one who consistently gets the point, aka has the highest percentage in the team? Because "best player" includes defense+receiving+blocking (not including setting, since we're talking about where the ball should go from the setter here) besides attacking, right?
I’ll give you an example. You can make the argument that for a team like UCLA, their best player is their outside hitter Ethan Champlin, 3x 1st team all American. Let’s refer to him as the best player. While he’s a go to guy. Middle blocker merick Mchenry is a stud hitting over .500 on the year. So while Champlin may be your best player, going to mchenry in high leverage situations because you know you can trust him with his high attacking percentage is a good choice as a setter.
Moral of the story, if you have someone that doesn’t get as many attempts as your best plays but is still very efficient ( usually middles) getting them involved when you need side outs is a good strategy.
@@mitchsterkenburgthanks for the explanation!
@@mitchsterkenburg Thanks for the response, but I'm not sure I get it; Maybe I'm a little slow on the uptake here. If McHenry from your example had a higher percentage than Champlin in a given series of games, that would make him my best attacker, right? Concretely: If I were a setter, I would consider the player with the highest point-conversion percentage as the best attacker, since other aspects of the game are not, or at least less relevant to consider when I'm distributing balls to attack, right? So why would I prefer to go to my overall best player, if there's another player who maybe lacks defensive skill, but converts more (typical for middles)? Shouldn't I lean on them more than the otherwise better player?
@@kilian7919 hitting percentages are often distorted by volume and transition plays. Middle typically have really high hitting percentages because of their lower volume. Tough for pins to hit above .400 because so many scramble plays and back row attacks. So I wouldn’t say the highest percentage attacker would be considered the best attacker all the time. In many cases, yes usually one of the best but not always.
Most importantly hear, in the best player vs. highest percentage attacker conversations it’s really splitting hairs. But the point behind the message is to trust your middles when you need a big point.
@@mitchsterkenburg aha, see, that makes perfect sense; Glad I asked the follow-up. Thanks for clarifying, I needed the hint on the relationship between position and resulting relative percentages within the team and within positions. In my team (we had a garbage season), I have the feeling that a relatively low conversion from attacks by our MBs held us back. Based on the fact that they very rarely had rates higher than our OHs/OPs, which should not be the case. That will need to be bigger focus for next season then. Cheers!
