Message: [QUOTE="Cheriehoop, post: 1316152, member: 127"] I wonder how one can discern just from statistics (without a shot chart) about 2 point shots when a player is driving towards the basket vs taking a mid- range jumper? I would also guess that the probability of being fouled resulting in an opportunity for 3 points is greater on drives than jumpers . Even that can vary depending if the 2 point jumper is a drive and pop vs an open jumper. Also what's the value of getting an opponent in foul trouble on 2 point shots vs the rarer chance of getting fouled on a 3 point shot? Lots of variables here that are difficult to account for without much deeper and detailed statistics. [/QUOTE]
