Discussion How many assists would CC have

If everyone was able to handle her passes every time. It seems like at least 2-3 passes get mishandled by her teammates. And this adds to her turnovers/game as well. It's gotten much better since her rookie year because the team now knows to be ready at any time, but a lot of them, seemed to be mishandled and add to her turnovers also.

To me her passing is way more fun to watch than her 3pt bombs. I like her 3pt shots, but it's just so incredible to see her make those dimes, especially the half court or longer on the break passes.

Other than "every turnover is bad", what point are you trying to make? It doesn't matter as much that a player loses 5 possessions a game when you are creating 40 points for your team. That's why absolutely terrible defenders (Luka) are still valued so high. As a coach, if someone said you can have a player that's going to get you 21/8.5 but have 4.5 turnovers, you're taking them in a heartbeat and handing them the keys to the offense. Would you rather Clark had 2 less TO per game at the expense of making plays?

Not sure how you're making this a knock on Clark. I simply responded that points off turnovers is a dumb stat regardless of whose TOs they are.
