If you collect a player's first handful of awful years stats on 1 team... and then add them to his next handful of good stats on another team... when discussing how good the player is now.. That, I get as being dishonest or misleading.

.. but I'm curious to know why one of these sets of stats in your post would be any less honest than another...

There's just no other context for why someone would want to talk about the last 19 games... The number 19 is specifically chosen because it gives the highest win rate of any other number of games you could pick. That makes it misleading to me, its not inaccurate but its like a politician cherry picking just the numbers that make them look right.
