Edey’s ability to accelerate in transition to create deep seals and cross-matches is insane. One of the best athletes in basketball history.

"THE KOBE ASSIST". In 2012, Kirk Goldsberry unveiled a unique statistical phenomenon where 15% of Kobe Bryant's missed shots led directly to points. Kobe's perimeter gravity was so immense that his heavily contested shots regularly drew double and triple teams, leaving opposing defenses completely out of position to box out. In many instances, Kobe would deliberately attack a defense knowing his trailing big men possessed the rebounding advantage. Goldsberry calculated that Kobe's team scored off 15% of his misses, meaning that a league leading 54% of his total shot attempts resulted in points. Kobe Bryant didn't care about FG%. Kobe Bryant cared about WINNING.

We have tracked hundreds of millions of shots and cracked the equation revealing the perfect metrics of a shot! On each shot we measured the arc, depth, and left/right positioning and our research shows that 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗯𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝟰𝟱°

My hope for Tanner's creation next szn is continued 3PR development. Had an ATG 2PT scoring szn among FR/SO guards, but 167 lbs means 35 3PR isn't enough. Luckily, he knows how to access PU3s with speed + cognition + compact shot, accessed them more as comp rose, and is 85% FT.
