Time for Hukporto and Jamison to step it up. Mitch starts and someone else has to pick up the scoring loss. MITCH, OG, Hart, Bridges, Brunson with Clarkson, Deuce, Shamet, Yabu and Huk. Let's go boys.

Saw these stats noted on HoopsHype this AM and #s are mind boggling (at least to me).

Last year Brunson averaged 524 dribbles per game and had the ball for 8.8 minutes per game and 6.1 seconds per touch. All the highest in the league.
This year Brunson averages 431 dribbles per game and has the ball for 7.7 minutes per game and 4.8 seconds per touch.

Thus far that is a huge decline in his on ball time BUT I'm still just amazed he is still dribbling over +430 times a game (I might have guessed 250 dribbles on the high end).

His #s in pick/roll are also down from 55 per 100 plays to 43 per 100 plays - thus far this year.

For the dribbles thing, what's norm for an all star PG level guy? That's the comparison

I wasn't commenting on Jalen vs Others -- I was just shocked at the high # of dribbles regardless of the player....didn't realize ball is hitting the floor that often. I'm sure there are a # of other guys (Shae, Luka, Ja, Garland) have high dribble counts.
