thats true but i think even more than that the big problem with basketball stats is described in the last sentence there, everything in basketball is under the scheme, and furthermore the scheme is schemed for team cooperation
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 13 April 2021 21:17 (three years ago) link
the catch all offense stats are also really bad, maybe not as bad as the defensive ones but very bad none the less, the big advantage they have is its easier to measure offensive usage
all stats are going to need to be understood in the context of team and scheme, and the catch all stats make it very hard by being very complicated and particularly by attempting and failing to contextualize their results themselves, where granular stats lend themselves more to contextualization, tho with many of those you have the problem of bad data eg all "contested threes" are not equal

Wow. Steph Curry's averages last week: 43.8 points on 57.3% shooting from the field and 54.5% shooting from beyond the 3-point line. His averages for the month of April: 39.9 points on 55.6% shooting from the field and 49.2% shooting from beyond the 3-point line.— Melissa Rohlin (@melissarohlin) April 19, 2021

its truly remarkable. and other teams know he's the only option so he's getting blitzed and box-1d and facing the best defenders on the other team every game. his usage has gone up by like 5 points in that stretch and he's gotten even more efficient. he really needs to stretch the limits and shoot 25-30 threes a game on his own

My lord. Steph just had ANOTHER 10 3-pointer game. That’s 21 for his career. Klay has the 2nd most ever with 5. No one else has more than 3 games with 10 made 3s in NBA history. Steph has 4 in the last 7 days!— nick wright (@getnickwright) April 20, 2021
