I see the BA statistic in the box scores now, but am a little bit of a loss as to how one should interpret it. If a guy try to block too many shots and is out of position because of it? What about steal attempts -- players gambling on steal attempts that end up leading to easy baskets for the other team....

BA does not mean how often a player tried to block a shot, but how often a players shot (attempt) was blocked.

Ah...you're right...its block against, not block attempt.

Thanks...

Or Blocked Attempt, as in, attempt got blocked.
