Results can hide the process
A contested shot can fall and an open shot can miss. Over a short sample, the scoreboard may reward decisions that are difficult to repeat.
Location, defender distance, pass type and time on the shot clock provide context that field-goal percentage alone cannot.
Use a longer evidence window
Treat one game as a clue, not a conclusion. Compare shot profiles across several opponents and note whether the same actions keep creating open attempts.
