Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 4790885, member: 2117"] Clark averaged 5.8 TO/game in the tournament, not close to 8. She also averaged 10 assists per game, close to a 2:1 A/TO ratio while going up against some of the best competition in the country. For as much as she handles the ball and the offense is focused around her, she's going to have more turnovers. If people discredit her other stats for high usage, then you have to forgive some higher TOs due to usage as well. Last year as a team Iowa was #1 in scoring offense, #1 in FG%, #1 in assists, #6 in 3pt%, and top 5 nationally in A/TO ratio. All of these paint a clearer picture of what your PG is doing and her (and her team's) overall efficiency than isolating her 4.2 TOs/game last year. Individual player efficiency doesn't create a clear picture either. For example, vs NC State, Paige was efficient and by all accounts had a great game, but the team was still handily beat by NC State. They probably would have benefitted from her taking more shots and playing more aggressively than she did even if it meant her efficiency dropped some. [/QUOTE]
