No, because they essentially cancel each other out. This is why stans look like fucc bois when they talk about assists without mentioning turnovers.

And those same Brantards try to discredit points with missed shots but fail to see the correlation of stats that compare making passes to missing passes.

What does this have to do with anything? Lebron is supposed to be Magic Johnson, yet his AST-TO ratio is hardly better than that of a SG? Magic's is 2.87, Stockton's is 3.75, Chris Paul's is 4. Lebron has basically the same AST-TO ratio as Westbrook :lol . That's not very impressive for the supposed best playmaker in the league.

How the fvck did he manage to have a lower AST-TO than Magic considering he plays against more relaxed, less physical defenses and more spacing enabling easier passing and therefore higher % of not having a turn over as a result of the rule difference. What a joke. :lol

Let's compare the two. Kobe has the most missed shots yet is 3rd all-time in scoring and only 5k points off Kareem. Lebron is 2nd all-time in turnovers with 277 off Karl Malone. He's already 3 turnovers ahead of Stockton yet is 10th all-time in assists with 8,908 to Stockton's 15,806.

I don't know why you keep bringing up Stockton who averaged less than half the points LeBron does. Obviously a player doesn't just turn the ball over passing. If Stockton had to also score 27ppg his turnovers would obviously be significantly higher.

Not sure what the point of those numbers are. Even in the sample you've selected, Lebron is better.

And are you saying that Kobe, the scorer supreme, got outscored throughout his career by a POINT GUARD? He at least managed to out-rebound him, right? Right???

And this doesn’t include other things that can happen when you attack scoring, particularly in the paint (strips, mishandle, lost ball in general).

But which is more likely to happen - losing the ball as you drive to the hoop or making a bad pass? Especially with today's rules and with how the refs treat Lebron?

Given his strengths and actually watching who he is as a player, I’d say he’s more likely to flub one off his leg or be stripped than make an errant pass.

He threads the needle a lot. Either way I'm sure Stockton lost his fair share of balls due to defenders being allowed to hand-check on the perimeter.
