Actually I was wrong. I read that from an article but here is the calculation of the data from NBA.com for offensive rating for teams:
100*Points/(Team FGA + Team TOV + (0.44*Team FTA) – Team OREB)
They have a similar basic formula for individuals that is standard.
basketball reference has actually made their calculation much more complex and is too long to post. So I guess based on your assumptions and assertions bball ref is inaccurate.
But I was right that they both get their data from the NBA. The NBA does not release all of their data though. Some of the numbers from basketball are estimated.
I do find bball ref to be a good source for data. I find NBA.com to be much better though. Regardless, it seems like you are trying to find numbers to hurt Exum and ignoring ones that show he is good. I have posted plenty of numbers showing that in his limited minutes and games in the regular season he was one of our better players. Including that he had our best off rating and net rating.
BBREF follows the exact oRtg and dRtg formula as published by the creator of the metric. https://www.basketball-reference.com/about/ratings.html
