I hate turnovers. More often than not, they seem totally careless. There’s calculated risk and then stupid, careless risks. Too often the latter occurs.
I agree with this and one of the things that drives me nuts about Locke on his podcast is how he discounts turnovers, often claiming they’re not that big of a deal. BS, especially with our team having less possessions than others typically.
It’s not only Rubio’s turnovers but it’s his lack of awareness especially at crucial times. For example, last night at the end of regulation or the first overtime, I can’t remember, but he ignored Rudy’s screen and drove into three defenders which lead to a costly turnover. He did this with around 14 seconds left on the shot clock. He needs to be aware in that situation, bring it back out and run something else or heaven forbid, call a timeout.
Snyder needed more Korver and O’Neale last night. The minute distribution makes no sense to me. Super frustrating game.
