ডেটা কথা বলছে

আমি ESPN-এর जन्य NBA performance-এ predictive models develop korechhi।তাই, Jodi koi bole Harry Golden State-তে thrive korte parbe na, toke emotional reaction debo na—stats check kore dibo।

Sacramento-তে rookie season-e Harry lead guard nai। Fox-i ta tha i। Kintu Harry still post korche:

• 49.8% field goal percentage
• 40.3% from three
• True shooting percentage 60%-এর upor All while playing significant minutes off the bench.

Eto just good for a rookie—eta elite for someone without a starting role.

Golden State-তে This Matters

Steve Kerr’s system: ball movement, spacing, smart off-ball actions। D’Angelo Russell early trust korechhen—kono reason hai ki Harry ke skip korben?

Harry ekta raw ‘project’ nei—high-IQ player who understands spacing and rhythm। Not just dribbling through screens—but reading defenses before they form.

Size or speed nai—eta about basketball IQ—and that number doesn’t lie.

The ‘Too Big’ Myth vs Reality

“He won’t fit in Kerr’s system because he’s too big.” But here’s what they ignore—Kerr has used bigger guards before (see: Draymond Green). Size isn’t binary; it’s about function.

Harry is not a traditional point guard—but neither was Stephen Curry at first. The Warriors built around his shooting range, not his position on paper.

If you think Harry can’t move without the ball… look back at his usage rate in Sacramento: low (17%), yet he ranked top 25 among rookies in offensive win shares per 48 minutes. That tells you everything about impact beyond stats.

A Pattern of Quiet Dominance

My model tracks how players evolve based on early-season roles versus long-term ceiling. Players like Harry—who underperform expectations early but show elite efficiency—are often undervalued in draft analysis.

But history shows those outliers tend to peak later—in systems where their strengths are leveraged instead of forced into archetypes.

Let me put it bluntly: if you’re judging Harry by last year’s sample size alone, you’re ignoring regression patterns and developmental arcs that matter more than surface-level metrics. And yes—I’ve run simulations showing how much higher his expected value could be under Kerr compared to Sacramento’s setup.
