    82 games just did a recent analysis, basically putting together all the stats they have on the individual players pages in an article called shooters vs scorers.

    In terms of FG% on 2PT jumpshots, this means mid-range, not shots in the paint, Brand was second to KG with 47.0%. Last season he shot 41.8% on mid-range jumpers. Now, you'd think, okay, with better players this year, he's getting assisted more, nope. His assisted percentage on jumpshots is down 10% from last season, and overall is down 8%.

    Third on the list was Dirk at 45.8%, and the other big man in the Top 10 was Bosh at 7th with 43.8%. In terms of who get's assisted most out of those guys, both Brand and Dirk were at 59%, KG at 58%, and Bosh at 57%, so he doesn't have an advantage on them in that area.

    Brand's mid-range game has just been amazing this season, he's become terrific on the pull up, and on the pick and roll jumper than it's insane.
