Over a 10 game period it is three more missed shots. The guy does have a problem staying healthy which is why he isnt more respected. Even this year he was hurt and came back fairly quickly afterwards which surely dipped his numbers. 2 key stats that you failed to mention is that the number of turnovers and fouls has dropped quite a bit which shows that he is growing as a player. Basketball stats are also really affected by systems and coaches way more than baseball

I'm not buying that Delonte West sucked and is suddenly a good player. He's maybe improved slightly but he's not significantly better than he was in his second year. If Lebron leaves Cleveland he'll be right back to being on a 33 win team.
