He’s still really really good. I don’t understand these rumors.
Oh I completely agree with you. Turner's value is one of the things I have to eat crow on (or maybe it is Hayward's value I have to eat crow on?). I'm a big Turner fan so it was surprising for sure to see his rumored value this offseason.
Something I say over and over that people cannot seem to get through their heads.
Analytics is king in the modern NBA. Think “Moneyball”. So every factor is looked at.
Including games missed due toni jury for cost and win share.
The keenest GM’s understand that if you have a guy who is more talented but misses 20+ games a year on average, and a guy who had a little less talent but plays 72+ every year, the numbers ultimately favor the lesser guy.
