Orangeyes posted this article in the Wednesday Articles thread, but I've got a bit of a bone to pick with it:

This blurb here seems to make no sense:
He only averages 1.4 turnovers per game, so how can he average a turnover every 7 possessions? That would be a horrible turnover rate. Syracuse averages 64 possessions a game.
Extrapolate that over 40 minutes and a turnover every 7 possessions would equal over 9 turnovers a game. It's much closer to Ennis averaging a turnover every seventy possessions, not seven.

This blurb here seems to make no sense:
Ennis is a freshman, but he plays with the poise of a four-year starter. It was 16 games before he committed more than two turnovers, and for the season he only turns it over roughly once every seven possessions.
