Some redditor points out that JJJ's steals+blocks numbers may be heavily inflated by biased scorekeeping. Also some video examples in the comments. I thought it was a hater post at the beginning, he makes a pretty convincing case. The difference between his home and road games is egregious.
Take this as you want.
I'd need to see evidence that this wasn't happening with other players. This study just examines JJJ, not whether he's getting treatment that other players aren't. Scorekeeping has been consistently been this way forever.
It is not uncommon for a lot of players to play better at home than on the road. I agree it's an interesting statistic, but the other day I watched film of every JJJ block and didn't see anything noteworthy.
