Why wouldn't you want to exhaust every available avenue before making a decision that will effect that goal?
But, do we know that they don't? Is it possible they collect all the data, but still make some decisions that don't look good in Pelton's computer?
They wouldnt be the only ones. Hinkie's got the luxury of zero expectations of winning. So right now he's 1000% all in. However, even known hard core stat guys have gone against their own philosophies when they're actually trying to win games. Morey brought Josh Smith. Hollinger traded for Jeff Green after ripping him a new one a few years ago when he was writing about this stuff and not actually doing it for real.

I don't even get what you're trying to do here. You believe they are cutting edge, great. I see no evidence of that. That doesn't mean they're dumb or not trying their best to win.
And you have no clue why Houston went after Smith or if it was a compromise of philosophy. Why don't you tell me how many long 2s he's taking in Houston? How many 3s?
