Didn't think it was possible for a shooting guard in today's NBA to score back to back 32 point games efficiently without taking 3s. Based on the Sloan Sports Conference from 2012, these were the offensive rebound rates: Inside 6 feet: 36.6% So three's result in longer rebounds by about 1 to 1.5 feet (less the longer the 2 is). Add that to the 4.4% diff in ORR% and to the HUGE diff in EFG% ... there is not much of an argument. 3's also have a lower turnover rate but that gets complicated too since more turnover come on drives to the hoop vs. long 2's and drives / shots at the rim are the most coveted. These shots / drives also open up the efficient three point attempts / create space for cleaner looks. Dean Oliver: "Basketball is a game of layups and threes." In short, you want shots close to the hoop or from three because NO team shoots better than 50% from the two point range anywhere except near the hoop and teams don't even shoot 40% from long two's (but I think that we agree that this shot is not a good one). This was the link I was referring to but it is dead now (unfortunately): http://courtvisionanalytics.com/where-do-rebounds-go/ so here is what phil is thinking ....

Biyombo has no offensive game. Still looks spastic since his Charlotte days.
