Thread on the importance of shooting efficiency.
Casual fans typically focus more on scoring, which tends obvious, than on shooting efficiency, which is less obvious.
Shooting efficiency is ALL points per ALL shots (2FGA, 3FGA, FTA). And it is very important in winning.

TS% is points per TSA.
TSA=FGA+.044*FTA.
In 2020, average TSA is 99.0.
For this thread, let& #39;s set TSA at 100.
In 2020, average TS% is .565.
TS+ is TS% compared to average.
So a .565 TS% in 2020 = 100 TS+

Curry& #39;s career TS+: 115
If 100 TS+ = .565, 115 = .650
If Curry took every TSA (100 on ave) for his team at his average career efficiency, his team would score:
130 pts
Westbrook: career 97 TS+
= 110 pts on 100 TSA in .565 TS% context
Win % of teams +20 (130-110):
.911 (75-7)
