Maybe it's because when you get a big increase in usage (as opposed to small, incremental ones) it's a result of players taking on a different role . . . maybe getting more isolations or plays run for them instead of taking the leftover shots where you don't get the ball until it's shoot or shot clock time?

Has anyone looked at this? Are there patterns that have developed and what kind of hypotheses are supported by them?

What other stats should be considered when talking about scoring efficiency?
