Principle of Graphical Integrity Violated:

1. Representation of numbers should be directly proportional to numerical quantities
   1. This visualization utilizes a “lie factor” significantly higher than one to emphasize statistical imbalance (due to teams using five starters, it may also be more informative to show how Arkansas’ additional forty minutes of action was divided amongst its starters).
   2. Potentially utilizing “lie factor” to generate a justification for a predicted outcome.

Principle of Graphical Integrity Violated and Other Concerns:

1. Clear, detailed, and thorough labeling should defeat graphical distortion and ambiguity
   1. Obviously, data is represented in an ambiguously relative fashion (with actual numbers being hidden)
2. Difficult to say whether or not other principles are violated due to the lack of data labels or a key (cannot say whether or not data has been classified properly, etc.)
   1. May not even be an appropriate visualization based on data being represented, as shading is not necessarily always the best way to visualize singular quantities.
