    I love me some Payton Pritchard propaganda. Been pushing it all season.

    Fun fact, since the Pacers game, (i.e. the game that people say “prop up” his advanced numbers), this is what PP has been doing in those 7 games after:

    • 3rd in Offensive Rating on the team
    • 4th in NetRating on the team
    • 3rd highest AST% on the team
    • 7.33 AST/TOV RATIO!!!
    • 2nd on the team in OReb%, (technically 3rd, but Banton has only played in 3 games)

    Also, if you were to take a step back and just look at counting stats on the season, he’s not costing us more than he’s helping us on offense.

    • He’s missing 3.5 shots per game
    • He’s averaging 3.5 assists per game
    • He’s making 1.7 shots per game
    • He’s turning the ball over 0.6 times per game
    • He’s grabbing 1.4 ORebs per game

    If you consider points, assists, and ORebs as winning possessions and turnovers and missed shots as losing possessions, he’s winning more possessions than he’s losing on offense.
