You might be right on both.

I recall a game where Sanogo looked like Magic Johnson for the first half: scoring, rebounding, and passing.  Hurley sat him for all but two minutes in the second half because he wanted to match up with them, rather than imposing our will on them.  But I generally recall him being a more dynamic passer than Reed.

My point is ast/TO is obviously a great metric that is very useful for this type of analysis.  But that doesn't necessarily tell if the player has advanced vision and the anticipation that our offense requires.  Our team in general has proven it does not this year, though we have decent assist numbers.

Take Solo's game from last night.  It was by far his best passing game because he hit cutters and passed our guys open on multiple occassion.  We have't seen that from him this year.

You get an assist for handing the ball off for a Solo three.  Is that what he's doing?  SJ has passed to cutters within the flow of our offense multiple times.  It pops out more to me.  Maybe i'm missing it.  I am willing to be corrected, but I'd be curious on how the board would rank them based on the eye test.
