    I agree, I think the box score layout needs to be revamped because the NBA in the last 10 years has gone towards analytics and it often does a better job at painting the right picture of what's impacting the actual game.

      Plus minus/net rating already catches a lot of impact a player has. It gets better with a larger sample size ofcourse. What i used to do when i was a coach is to count "key passes" -> passes that led to a good shot. Now you also get an "assist" if the shot is missed. It made the team more willing to pass

    Interesting thought on screen assists! Would help casuals view players in more positive light if it was stat. I looked up leaders and Kings dominate this category. Sabonis leads league in screen assists per game & his backup Len leads in league in screen assists per 48 min (min 100 minutes)

      i disagree i think it'd make casual view players in a negative light. if people saw that most of sabonis's assists come off of hand offs and that a lot of them don't involve any sort of passing or playmaking they'd view his assist count as fraudulent which it kinda is tbh some of the assists they give him is wild

    Blocked shots and steals were not counted as official stats in the NBA until the 1974-74 season, so I am all for screen assists being added to the list. Gobert and Green have other ways to shine, but the value of guys like Luke Kornet, Trayce Jackson-Davis, Clint Capela, Steven Adams, et al., would be greatly enhanced both in the eyes of fans and GMs if that stat were made official.

    Boy oh boy where do I even begin. Lebron.. honey, my pookie bear. I have loved you ever since I first laid eyes on you. The way you drive into the paint and strike fear into your enemies eyes. Your silky smooth touch around the rim, and that gorgeous jumpshot. I would do anything for you. I wish it were possible to freeze time so I would never have to watch you retire.
    You had a rough childhood, but you never gave up hope. You are even amazing off the court, you're a great husband and father, sometimes I even call you dad. I forvever dread and weep, thinking of the day you will one day retire. I would sacrifice my ownlife it were the only thing that could put a smile on your beautiful face.
    You have given me so much joy, and heartbreak over the years. I remember when you first left clevenland and its like my heart got broken into a million pieces. But a tear still fell from my right eye when I watched you win your first ring in miami, because deep down,my glorious king deserved it. I just wanted you to return home. Then allas, you did, my sweet baby boy came home and I rejoiced. 2015 was a hard year for us baby, but in 2016 you made history happen. You came back from 3-1 and I couldn't believe it.
    I was crying, bawling even, and I heard my glorious king exclaim these words, "CLEVELAND, THIS IS FOR YOU!" Not only have you changed the game of basketball and the world forever, but you've eternally changed my world. And now you're getting older, but still the goat, my goat. I love you pookie bear, my glorious king, Lebron James.

      You do know that coaches and players read box scores between quarters in a game for strategy purposes. and they for sure watch the game at a level we can’t. Stats are helping but not the end all be all. No sport is ever going to do away with stats

      @@Zay0321 I'm well aware. If you truly understand the game, as a player or coach, you make adjustments on the fly. Without looking at a stat sheet, you know what a player's/teams tendencies are, and plan/adjust accordingly. If you can't do that with eye test and experience, you're not very good at what you do.

      @@chrisbrooks6756 WTH so now championship nba level coaches aren’t good at there job, because they look at stats too🤣🤣😂. you can’t keep track of how many 3s a team hit in a quarter or how many minutes a certain player is playing or how many fouls your team is committing etc just by looking m, basketball is fast pace and 10 guys are are in action. Yes you have to analyze the game with your eyes but stats are the summarization of the game. as I said no sport is going to not track stats so get that idea out your head

    JJ and LeBron are trying to make the reading of the game simple but yet finding ways to make it complicated. Of course, there are offensive sets you have to run but at the same time, you read and react to what's available...even if a teammate isn't open for a shot but can receive the pass to get the basketball to the open man. However, you have to make defense you make the defense work. This shit isn't difficult. Lol.
