Message: [QUOTE="diggerfoot, post: 4739461, member: 1673"] Grammatically, I stand corrected. Turnover rate refers to turnovers only, I used that term incorrectly using A/T ratio in referring to few turnovers for the amount of possessions Muhl had. You refer to the role of execution in succeeding with high risk/high reward plays ending with a good A/T, even though turnovers might be higher than expected from a less “risky” point guard. Yet decision making is also a factor. One can have a high A/T without executing difficult passes by simply making good decisions. Chong fit in this category. In a comparison between Fudd and Muhl I do not believe Muhl is better at executing passes, but her A/T ratios have consistently been higher because of better decision-making, which should not be surprising when you consider Muhl has been trained and groomed her whole life to make these decisions. Making good decisions based on one’s ability is what leads to low turnovers per possession, not how great the pass one can execute, and Muhl excels at that. On edit: I should have compared Muhl to Clark, though by escaping one type of controversy I lead to a different type. I don’t think Muhl is better at executing riskier passes than Clark, she has a lower turnover rate than Clark, and by extension a higher A/T rate, because she makes better decisions. [/QUOTE]
