It’s like Draymond Green. Individually his statistics suck. He’s jokingly called Mr Triple Single (a triple double is a major achievement, a triple single not so much). But he’s such a fantastic defensive coordinator and playmaker that his impact metrics on the team are massive. Like practically comparable to Steph, his more lauded teammate, in some stretches.
A common refrain in basketball is that people forget it’s a team sport. Doesn’t matter how good you are individually if your team sucks (see Michael Jordan in 1988 or Lebron most of his career). Similarly programming is a team sport. Individual stats are not the same as team success.
