Brandon Knight dropped from fourth to seventh in these rankings because he is still developing as an NBA-level decision maker. As of Sunday, Knight was turning the ball over on 22.1 percent of his offensive possessions, according to Synergy Sports. Most of these turnovers have come at the worst possible time. Knight has the ball in transition on 17.1 percent of his offensive possessions, and he has been way too careless on those plays. Knight commits turnovers on 38.7 percent of his transition possessions. He also gives the ball away 13.5 percent of the time in pick-and-roll situations. If Knight can learn to take care of the ball, he should be able to work his way back up the rankings.
Yuck...
He's a rookie PG. Dude is gonna turn it over a fair bit.
What's the average turnover rate for a guard? As a rookie is Knight over or under it?
FWIW Kobe Bryant averages 3.9 turnovers and I don't think anyone gives a fuck!
Lowry averages 3.3
Rose averages 3.2
Stephen Curry was averaging 3.6
Rubio averages 3.3
Irving averages 3.2
Rondo averages 4.1
Deron averages 4.3
Nash averages 3.3
Westbrook averages 3.6
Knight? 3.1
It's not like the kid is making history with the amount of turnovers he commits
Rise like Lions after slumber,
In unvanquishable number -
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you -
Ye are many - they are few.
not to mention his teammates, for the most part, SUCK. so he's not getting much help out there. he's too smart a kid, too hard a worker, and too good a player not to improve this area; it'll take some time though. he's only 20 i believe. patience....
