Glad you know what happened, then how's that an option? It's not like Morey can just pick either one. Look at the current rockrts, except for harden everyone else is on 3 year contracts, coincidence? No. Morey is not going to offer anyone player option so the option was never there, Dragic had to take it or leave it. But that's not my point. The point is, AB used to play behind Rafer and he was average, ask fans back then who would they rather have? Probably rafer. Lowry was backing up AB and if it wasn't for AB's injury, Lowry wouldn't be where he is right now. Dragic was traded for AB, he was pretty bad for nearly a full season, guess what? He broke out after Lowry was injured. They are relevant because they were not as good as they are now when they first joined the rockets.
It means a lot because your eye-test is as reliable as a potato. Stats don't lie, you need to be incredibly ignorant to not look at the stats and keep telling yourself TO has been a problem for Lin. His shooting sucks, but he ain't got no TO issue this year.
Great point, give the kid some time he is more or less a rookie still. He may be very good, we saw a glimpse of what he might be last year so I think the chances are good for him.
And we keep talking about sample size sample size, if 25 games was not enough, how come 11 games was? Look at Garm right now, full of knee jerk threads, LOF and LOH fighting with each other like there's no tomorrow. How about we take a chill pill, lets wait and see what the coaching staff can do before we fire them, lets see what our young guys can do before we write them off after 11 games. Oh did I mention the team that everyone loved so much last year started off 4-7 as well?
Well call me Potatolee because those kind of things stand out when you can't shoot and your team is losing. Probably not a good idea to champion him for only having three turnovers a game when he is 17-56 shooting. Maybe it's just me.
There's a big difference between 2.6 TO and 3 TO a game. No, I've never championed him any way shape or form. It's just you.
It is just my opinion: fully recovery <> 100%. AB's shooting % dropped dramatically after he spun his ankle (and eventually lost his starting position to Lowry)... Lowry's shooting % was terrible after he spun his ankle as well (and eventually lost his starting position to Dragic)... Oh my goddess! Give this poor kid sometime...
Lin turnover percentage is still fairly high; notice that his usage took a huge drop from last year to this year. Were he to dominate the ball as he did for the Knicks, I'd suspect his turnovers to shoot up to around 4 per game again. Combine that with his unbelievably terrible shooting and you can imagine why the coaching staff wants him to defer to much more offensively capable players. This signing has been worse than even the more skeptical of us could have imagined and Morey ought to take the blame.
Another myth, another twisted impression by one of our beloved members. What is fairly high? Is ranked 27th among PG a fairly high TO%?
It's hard to say if his turnovers improved because he's making better decisions or if he's just being extremely passive this year.
Yeah he's looking to make passes this year. Linsanity had a lot of turnovers not from passing but from driving in if I remembered correctly. I want to see him in a game where he actually looks to score often.
Actually, women shoot the ball really well. Their game is just as athletic as the Men's, but I'll give their fundamentals a very high grade as a whole.
He is 24th in terms of TO% for point guards who average 25 minutes a game. http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/hollinger/statistics/_/position/pg/sort/turnoverRatio Here is a list of guys with a better TO% than him Rodney Stuckey, DET Tony Parker, SA Jason Kidd, NY Chris Paul, LAC Randy Foye, UTAH Kemba Walker, CHA Russell Westbrook, OKC Brandon Jennings, MIL Raymond Felton, NY Goran Dragic, PHX A.J. Price, WSH Monta Ellis, MIL Jameer Nelson, ORL Ramon Sessions, CHA Luke Ridnour, MIN George Hill, IND Kyle Lowry, TOR Darren Collison, DAL Mo Williams, UTAH Greivis Vasquez, NO Tyreke Evans, SAC Jose Calderon, TOR Mario Chalmers, MIA Deron Williams, BKN Jeremy Lin, HOU He is doing better than last year when his TO rate was 15.5. So he is showing some improvement, but he isn't great in that department yet. His AST/TO ratio is 22nd in the league among PG so he can improve there as well, but it is better than last year so he is improving there as well.
