Small sample size alert, but:
McCallum 2016: PER 7.0; TS% .500; AST% 0.0; WS/48 .057
SethCurry 2016: PER 31.3; TS% .850; AST% 38.1; WS/48 .357
Curry has played well enough in his limited minutes to be given a shot at backup PG while Collison is on the sideline.
If if its not too cmplicated to explain, could anyone tell me simply what PER, TS%, AST%, and WS refer to. I don't want to compute them, would like just an idea of what they refer to.

Jamal already covered it (I would add that PER is pretty much an offense-only stat), but I just want to keep in mind that these numbers are from 27 minutes (Curry) or 11 minutes (McCallum) and shouldn't be taken as anything other than a super quick assessment that Curry has done well enough to be given a chance with Collison out. Seth's numbers in these categories are actually rivaling Steph's this season and can't possibly be maintained at this level with even regular back-up minutes.
A good summary until we hit this point.WS= Win Shares. Another "be all, tell all" stat that tries to combine the impact of everything a player does on the floor into one stat. Once again, it has problems, but it's a better snapshot than PER.
Well if we're going with the small sample size, those stats suggest an MVP candidate, not a momentary backup while DC is out.Small sample size alert, but:

Any stat that depends on the talent of your teammates, that would take a huge jump one way or the other if you got traded from the Warriors to the Sixers, needs big sloppy asterisks. I've always wondered what the marginal numbers before the final "now we fudge with wins" step looked like. Be a better measure of productivity.
At least PER is straight forward and doesn't try to jury rig in vagueries.
But otherwise, like I said, a good summary.
On the opposing team, for at least tonight.With Collison out, is Curry our back up PG? Where is Ray McCallum when we need him?
well duh its cuz curry is an mvp candidateWell if we're going with the small sample size, those stats suggest an MVP candidate, not a momentary backup while DC is out.
