Here's an update, with one wrinkle.
I've run a new set of numbers to look at how players's TS%s change when behind. There isn't much of a correlation between that and shooting mentality, but I think it's worth a look:
And, here are the updated Shooting Mentality and Passing Mentality charts:
As you can see, Kyle Lowry -- who was the inspiration for this stat -- has mellowed a little. He's no longer right at the top of the shooting mentality chart and he's in the middle of the passing chart.
Meanwhile, Mike Conley is way up at the top of both charts now. There's a lot of Conley/ Gasol happening whenever Memphis trails.
Edit: Sorry about the size of those images, oops.
