    I can't fault him for speaking the truth even if it is against the team I love.

    Ha. I disagree with your assessment of both Chris Webber and why I hate him.

    Predictable loss.....but it's more about HOW they played. ISO ball just isn't going to do it against good teams that play defense. But let's keep giving Stots more years.... :banghead2:

    I agree with you that the theory of assists = greater offensive efficency because that makes the most logical sense. I'm just telling you the data doesn't back it up. If you have a large data sample, league wide over many years that says otherwise, I'll gladly stand corrected.

    It wasn't long ago people were saying "Why doesn't coach X post up every time because a 5ft shot is easier than a 20ft shot." This was the logical belief for many years until people saw the data didn't back it up.

    I hate to say it when Trent come back Stotts might try him for Simons in rotation. Simons right now is struggling there.

    we’re likely stuck in some shit contract with Nike that requires us to wear them for x amount of games.

    It’s not just that they are cursed, they are also ugly as fuck. They look like they were designed by an imbecile who forgot he had to leave room for the team name.

    Here's a sample from a few years ago (2013 I believe) showing the lack of correlation between assists and field goal percentage.
