Oh yes: compared to the previous tables here I also included the fouls into the defended shots so TOTAL=OPEN+GUARDED, while previously TOTAL=FOULS+OPEN+GUARDED. In the future I may put also the points scored as well so that people can do their calculations if they so wish.
Another thing the numbers seem to indicate is that Assists help more for inside shots than outside shots. For 3 pointers the difference in efficiency between an assisted shot and a defended shot is relatively low (assisted shots are always open shots).
Again we need to check these numbers by position as well, because we may find that the 3 point percentages are beefed up by C and PFs shooting surprisingly well when guarded...which is a theory that has gone around for a long time and may explain how the open v guarded drop is not so large (the theory goes that for big man is better to take a contested 3 pointer than an open one as the FG% is higher when guarded)
