Probably but he said, "intangibles that don't show on the stat sheet" - and you said "calculated it". I am saying they definitely did which means it does, for sure, show on their stat sheet. That's how they calculated it.

The idea that players in pro sports, for that much $$, have any "intangibles" is laughable and everyone should stop saying it. Including broadcasters.

Oh yeah, well it's kinda different things I guess... traditional stat sheet doesn't show things like the Hustle plays to recover a loose ball, or deflections

But those things really aren't all that intangible anymore, they track most of these stats

Though even still something like "the defense is better with him on the floor because he is the vocal leader and calls out where the help is and rotates well forcing the offense into worse shots" is both sorta intangible and also something the warriors coaches definitely see
