Johnson is a better jump shooter than Iggy.

Johnson is a more productive scorer than Iggy.

Johnson is NOT a more efficient scorer than Iggy. Their true shooting percentages were close to identical this year, and in previous seasons Iggy's actually had the edge.

True. That was an incorrect statement above by someone.

However, it would seem fair to assume that Iggy's efficiency would drop if he were to attempt to score at Johnson's rate, and conversely, Johnson's efficiency should go up if he's not forced to score at the rate he is.

As a general principle I agree, though Iggy did score at a rate of 20.1 per 40 minutes in 2008 without his efficiency suffering.
