The 3 point % thread made me want to look up our other teams stats. The following is what I found.

30th in field goal attempts
10th in field goal percentage
29th in rebounding
28th in offensive rebounding
21st in defensive rebounding
26th in assists per game
25th in steals per game
22nd in free throw percentage

17th in free throw attempts
17th in 3 pointers attempted
11th in fg% allowed
1st in opponent's field goals attempted per game
2nd in 3 point percentage
8th in blocks


I know we're 5-3 and we've had some injuries but these are some pretty God awful and perhaps alarming stats. The sky isn't falling but these should be recognized, perhaps rebounding most of all, since Quin and the staff stressed it (specifically at the end of games I guess) this off-season. The sample size is relatively small but I thought people would want to see these.
 
We are 14th in rebounding rate though which is a better indicator and with Favors beginning to play more and Hayward back, I would think this would improve.
 
Where do we rank in possesions? A slow pace equates for less possesions and for less rebounds/assists/attempts etc.
 
Besides free-throw percentage, all of your bolded stats are an expression of pace. We're still a grind-it-out team. Your second post adjusts for this in one category (rebounding). The other categories need adjustment as well.

30th. By far.

27th-Orlando-96.9 possessions per game
28th-San Antonio-96.6
29th-Toronto-96.4
30th-Utah-94.2
 
My least favorite stats are free-throw percentage, assist ratio, and rebound percentage. I hope those climb. I'd also expect our pace to increase as we get healthy and more integrated (hopefully); but we'll still be a slow team.

Cunning, we're getting less attempts to rebound since both we and our opponents are taking less shots than anyone in the league.

The rebound numbers are affected by the slow pace and grind out games Utah plays. Not very reliable on their own.

The stats to look at (IMO) are FG%, rebounding rate, assists, TOs, FT% and the same for opponents.

Clear work to do on assists and FTs.

Our pace is like the neutral zone trap in the NHL in the mid 90's. It slows the game down, which did win the Devil's the Stanley Cup, btw. Plus like in the NFL, the fewer plays there are in a game, the fewer chances your stars will go out with a concussion or other injury. So with Rudy signing his $100 mil extension, we better get used to it.
