Did I claim that eFG% was an advanced stat? I was more looking at hands rating, rebound rating, PER/net PER as advanced stats and the rest as simple ones.
And TS?
Collison 52.8%
JJB 53.5%
Doesn't really change anything in my view. It shows a slight edge for JJB in yet another statistical category. Am I claiming that JJB is superior? No way. but I think giving that list of simple and advanced stats that actually makes JJB look like the better player at least refutes your point that

collison is already significantly better than any version of jjb right?

Significantly better? Silly to compare? I think I refuted those points as well as could be expected. My biggest concerns were ability to make good decisions (pass rating/hands rating) and defense (net PER) and both of those are measured on an individual basis and show significant advantages for JJB. At least in that one-year sample JJB made better decisions and wasn't abused as bad by opposing PGs as Collison is so far this year.
