Calculating basketball efficiency

I’m looking at a scenario with 12 field-goal attempts that result in 38 points, considering the mix of free throws as well. Hypothetically, if all attempts were 3-pointers, that would lead to 38 points perfectly with an exceptional efficiency rating.

To analyze efficiency, I need to look at points per shot (PPS) while factoring in free throws too. I should also ask for specific stats like field goals made, attempted, and other relevant data to compute overall efficiency metrics.

Additionally, I think a witty remark could add some fun to the conversation!Calculating true shooting percentage

I'm examining an ideal scenario where all points come from field goals, which leads me to 38 points from 12 field-goal attempts. However, I realize it's impossible without including free throws since the maximum points from 12 attempts would be 36 if they were all 3-pointers.

So, at least 2 free throws are needed to reach 38 points. After calculating, I find that the true shooting percentage (TS%) could theoretically be around 147.5%, which seems plausible because it can exceed 100% if points are more than two per possession.Exploring field goal scenarios

I’m thinking through the different scoring combinations that could lead to 38 points from 12 field-goal attempts. If some of the shots were 2-pointers instead of 3s, I'd need more free throws or successful makes.

For instance, I could suggest a plausible line like 10 out of 12 field goals, with 8 being 3-pointers. However, that would then require additional free throws to meet the target points. I could also summarize a couple of examples with different stats achieving the same 38 points while respecting the total field-goal attempts.Analyzing potential scoring lines

I'm examining another scoring scenario: if a player went 8 for 12 in field goals, with 6 out of 8 being 3-pointers and hitting all 16 free throws, that adds up to 38 points. I find that I can calculate the true shooting percentage (TS%) for this line, which turns out to be nearly 100%.

It’s also interesting to think about points per shot attempt and how we could identify possible players behind these stats. Names like Jimmy Butler or Kawhi Leonard come to mind, but I want to avoid guessing too much or over-speculating.Formulating a concise response

I think it's best to ask, "Which game is it? I can calculate TS%, eFG%, and more." I want to answer in Chinese while offering a brief analysis and some key formulas.

I can include bullet points for clarity:

• For 12 shot attempts scoring 38 points with a minimum of 2 free throws, the TS% is approximately 147.5%, and PPS is around 3.17 (excluding free throws), which is an incredible efficiency.
• If there are more free throws (say, 12 FGA and 10 FTA), TS% would be about 116%.
• Please provide specific stats (FGM-FGA, 3PM-3PA, FTM-FTA), and I can calculate TS%, eFG%, and PSA to compare with league averages.
