I am trying to figure this out, but am having a lot of trouble. Would greatly appreciate it if y'all can help me out.

Somehow, 1-4 is a 20% winning percentage, and yet 6-24 is 25% shooting. If I remember my grade 3 fractions correctly, 1/4 is the same as 6/24, given that:

6 = 6/4 = 1
24 24/4 6

So why is one 20% and the other 25%?

Kirby has played in 5 games, losing 4 of them. In 80% of the games Kirby has played in this season, the Lolkers have lost.

FG/FGA would be equivalent of wins/games played, not wins/losses. either way its shitty, because kirby is always inefficient when it matters, and shitty at winning when mvpau is over the hill

:lol

6/24 = 25%
1-4(1 win, 4 losses = 5 games total) = 1/5 = 20%

I thought chinks could do such math stuffs before they learned to tie their shoes, tbh

OP's trolling attemp (aimed at Kobe) ended up being a shot in his own fat yellow ass imho, when we all know chinks are born with math/calculating skills and they're all able to do such easy math before they can even tie their shoes tbh.

Thanks for all your help. I think I grasping the concept at how the two are different yet both are horrible.

And rogue is right, I learned to tiey shoelaces first, but only because I had problems with my fingers and could tiey shoelaces until I was about 12 years old.

It always bothers me when people write shooting stats with a - instead of a /. Fractions are represented with a /, while win-loss records are represented with a -.
