[QUOTE="the juiceman cometh, post: 1699078, member: 747321"] Most likely heavily weighted to efficiency. Trent has a worse FG% and 3pt% than both Plummer and Grandison (as well as worse TS% and eFG%) and a higher turnover %. He also averages fewer pts on a per minute or per possession basis than either. That being said, he is being asked to do a lot more and play a lot more minutes than either. He's taking a lot of bad shots because he's often the fall back option when things aren't clicking. He doesn't have the luxury to pass up contested shots in the way Plummer and Grandison often do. Add in that advanced metrics are not great at quantifying individual defense, where Trent is clearly better than Plummer and Grandison. I agree that Trent is more valuable than Plummer and Grandison (who are also both great!) [/QUOTE]
