Part of what makes a PG truly great is that they can score, shoot, rebound and set guys up but they don't worry about doing any of those things. They understand that whatever it says on their stat line at the end of the game doesn't matter as much as making the right decision in as many decision making satiations as possible while controlling the game and pacing it in a way that gives their team its best chance to win the game. That is why great PG's are so rare and most college guys being called PG's are really scoring guards that use their great scoring abilities and attentions that they garner to set up other players. However controlling the game, pacing the game, managing the game and making the right decision consistently is very rare. This is why sometimes you can't say Ennis was great at this or that but you know he played a great game. I don't think Tyler cares at all about his stat line as long as he feels he is helping his team win. Tyler is a highly skilled specialist in all of these things. Don't get so caught up in numbers. What good are 9 ass a game if you turn it over 5 or 6? Its probably worse than 3 with no turnovers because you get more shots assist or not.
