Jaren Jackson plays MUCH MUCH MUCH harder at home and hustles like a maniac and focuses on stealing and blocking shots like crazy in Memphis, causing his numbers to be skewed in an absurd manner even compared to his regular highly efficient top 3- but realistic, road numbers. Three potential explanations, only one of which is innocent: steals+blocks #s on the box score and determine with a high level of confidence whether that game was played on the road or in Memphis is the next question. Why is this happening so blatantly to the point where a person can just look at Jaren Jackson Jrs. My educated guess is that the Memphis scorekeeper(s) have been changed since last season and/or ULTERIOR MOTIVES, INCENTIVES are now in play with respect to JJJ's defensive statistics. 90%+ higher in Memphis, however, as is the case this season, is NOT REASONABLE AND COMPLETELY UNREALISTIC. BPG was actually 12.7% lower on the road(he played 4 fewer home games) while steals+blocks/game was 15% lower on the road- higher than i expected, but reasonable given all the differences for Memphis when playing at home vs on the road, from their home/away record difference to crowd noise to effort/energy/intensity exerted by players, etc. He had 39 steals in Memphis and 34 steals on the road. He had 90 blocks in Memphis and 87 blocks on the road. my hypothesis was that his home/road difference on steals & blocks would both be small. I conducted some analysis on all 78 games jaren jackson played last season. Now, in large part thanks to these blatantly wrong statistics, he is a huge odds on favorite at higher than -200. Jaren Jackson in July - mid November started as high as +10,000 for DPOY at certain sportsbooks after the Grizzlies announced he had undergone a procedure to address a stress fracture in his right foot and would be sidelined for 4-6 months. I wonder if the scorekeeper has some sort of vested interest in Jaren Jackson getting maximum high value defensive statistics that he thinks he can get away with putting down into the box score. By my count he actually had 3 fewer "stocks"(some people refer to steals+blocks as stocks) than he was credited for by the home scorekeeper. I decided to watch 2 memphis grizzlies games where he had one of his ludicrous 8+ blocks+steals games. 8 out of 9 of his 6+ steals+blocks games have been recorded in Memphis. Just 3 out of his 14 games this season with 5+ blocks+steals have come on the road. This demonstrates the sort of incredulous statistics which calls for serious analysis. A 96% increase in performance specifically at home is truly an aberration which should be reviewed. This equates to a 1.96X home stat increase only in these 2 categories. This equates to an average of an outlandish 5.5 blocks+steals at home in limited minutes versus a reasonable and realistic, and still outstanding, 2.81 steals+blocks per game on the road. In home games he has been credited with 88 blocks + steals, versus 45 on the road. This means he is averaging nearly 1.4 steals per game at home, but just 0.63 steals on the road per game- an astounding 120% increase in Memphis. In home games he has been credited with 22 steals in 16 home games, versus only 10 steals in 16 road games. At home in Memphis he has 66 blocks in 16 home games, averaging 4.13 blocks per game, versus just 35 in 16 road games, averaging 2.19 in nearly identical minutes- an 89% increase in Memphis. I decided to take a closer look at his games and IMMEDIATELY 1 thing became crystal clear. In fewer minutes per game than other players Jaron Jackson repeatedly gets outlandish block numbers at home. I am referring to Jaren Jackson Jr., who, after having missed ~16 games to start the season due to off-season foot surgery immediately started having extreme outlier high steals + blocks statistics, leading the entire NBA in blocks per game by a wide margin. I was wondering how a solid defensive player can suddenly have some specific statistical categories that are completely off the charts. I would like to bring to your attention the scorekeeper of the Memphis Grizzlies. MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES SCOREKEEPER POSTING FRAUDULENT NUMBERS FOR DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR LEADER JAREN JACKSON JR.
