    I think 7 - 34 tells more of a story. (Green and FVV combined from the field)

    There’s nothing to “believe in”, the stat measures what it measures. We won the most with Adams on the court which is true and obvious to anyone who watched the game. Nobody is asking you to “believe in” any stat. You should be aware of what it measures and treat it appropriately. It doesn’t tell you who played well or who didn’t. This is a bad way to look at any stat.

    This game is about making shots, and if any playoff team can't do this they will not get anywhere.

    FVV and Green were just straight bad tonight.

    It's useful but it doesn't tell the full story.

    Stats are useful with enough data. 1 game stat is misleading.

    Play Adams 48 minutes per game.

    Profit.
