maybe true shooting pct? (not a deep stats guy - is that the one that factors in 3 vs 2?)

Trading 2's for 3's is what kept HOU in the game in the 3rd. This isn't just another Fultz rant...any team with some 3pt threats is always in the game, to an extent. It's like knockout power in boxing...you can be behind in points thru most of the fight, but one mistake (or one 5 minute hot streak)



True, except, Orlando shot 32 FTs. The and-1 play is actually a higher percentage 3-pointer than the long ball.


I definitely value and-1's...must be a better inclusive metric available.

I give you an AND-1
