How the match works

We line up six numbers for every current player with 300+ shots this regular season: the share of his shots at the rim, in the rest of the paint, from midrange, from the corner 3 and from above the break 3, plus free throws per 100 shots. The gap between two players is the straight-line distance across all six numbers. The match score is 100 minus 1.5 times that gap, so identical diets score 100 and every point of gap costs 1.5 points. Most players' closest twin scores between 83 and 94, and two random players score around 50. It measures where shots come from, not how well they go in. Glossary
