PAC-12 HOOPS: "Stats that Matter"

Been asked again to share some numbers used 
When gauging REAL DISCERNABLE DIFFERENCES in capping PAC-12 Teams Proficiencies

Most numbers such as Turnover % & Rebound %'s 
Can be easily found & used
THE DIFFERENTIAL Numbers are what can be MOST USEFUL

i.e., another dynamic way to use infinitely valuable 'TRIANGLE'    

Triangulating Stats in this case: 
eFG | eFG Opponents ~ eFG DIFFERENCE

Similar to the Capping Theory used on this end, 
which Triangulates:
1. COACHING THEORIES 
2. STATISTICIAN THEORIES 
3. HANDICAPPING PRINCIPALS
__________

In any case, here are PAC-12  up to date Difference-Making Numbers

5 STATS THAT TRULY MATTER 

* PROFICIENCY DIFFERENTIAL *

A lot MORE numbers ‘matter’, of course
Yet many of those are so interwoven in stylistics of Teams’ Particular scheme/philosophy
Re. 3-Point Distribution Theories, ect

*  PACE | TEMPO 
*  MOTION vs. SCREEN-BASED OFFENSE
*  MTM vs. UNFIXED DEFENSE 
    (or even Match-Up Zones such as Syracuse, ect)

Will wildly skew certain numbers such as 
OFFENSIVE REBOUND %
(Teams that shoot more 3-Pointers will inevitably collect more O-Rebounds)
(Teams that screen-down, ect, will gain more FT’s)
