I love this sort of stuff. Over at SI's The Point Forward,
Zach Lowe looks at some of what has been presented so far.
Unsurprising, Kobe Bryant has taken spots from the most different parts of the court (as divided into 1x1ft squares), taking shots from 83% of the floor. Ray Allen is also in the top ten. Allen is second behind Steve Nash in most different spots on the floor where he shoots efficiently. Paul Pierce is also in the top ten for that stat.
Lowe also notes the conclusion that mid-range shots are the least likely to result in offensive rebounds.

a few of the papers and I'd love it if we could get some conversation about the ideas.
