Usually I don't like stats like this
But it’s pretty amazing that NOBODY has fulfilled this pretty simple (but apparently difficult to attain) set of conditions.
That is crazy stuff
Nice find though. Rec
Offseason:
Trade For Mike Conley Jr
Sign Antonio McDyess & Othello Hunter
Draft Kevin Seraphin/Rodrigue Beaubois(Eurostash)
Roy is in some pretty elite company there
All by himself

still an impressive group of people from 77-09
that are not there with brandon.
Rip City Baby...People have no idea what is coming.

Indeed
Generally it’s the point guards getting the 5+ assists, but they are usually quite high in turnovers. It’s the unselfish ball-handling shooting guards that are most likely to make the list, but handlng the ball often leads to turnovers. Vince Carter is probably one of the better comparisons, but he has only been over 5 assists once (and averaged 2.4 turnovers). This is a sign of Brandon’s maturity. Truly impressive.
yep, changing the criteria to 3 turnovers yields a pretty big list.
The cowards never started
The weak died along the way
Only the strong survived
They were the Trailblazers
Even at 2.5
you get 21 names. Chris Paul made it once. Mostly, though, the ones one the 2.5 list are in their late 20’s.
Looks like Brandon Roy is on his way to being the next Brandon Roy.
In a class all by himself. Awesome!
My favorite teams are the Blazers and any team that is playing the Lakers.
has he received the keys to the city yet?
he should have them. actually he probably should have the keys to every city in the entire state.

it's amazing when you play with that criteria a bit
another impressive stat that additionally makes for a impressive year is his FTA/G >= 6.. hardly earth shattering but Brandon is quite a versatile threat

Yeah, but Roy will never beat three seasons of AI with more than 30 points, more than 5 assists and less than 5 rebounds :)

Whereas more than 5 rebounds per game, that’s “easy”

What's interesting
is that the closest, with 2.1 TO/G, were Jordan’s comeback year (only 17 games, though), and Jeff Hornacek in ’91-92. After that it goes to 2.3 and up.
As far as turnovers per game being counted only since ’77-78, I kind of get the feeling that the faster pace makes it a good bet that Roy would still come out on or near the top.

It seems like if it was really all that great
Kobe woulda’ done it already.
Must not be that good of an accomplishment. :-( Oh well.

Nate McMillian Basketball
This has as much to do about Nate as it does about Roy. I think this just shows what a terrible system McMillian has. There must be very little practicality for having your star player commit so few turnovers. We’re probably missing out on a lot of productive plays with the current style of ball the Blazers play.
I will criticize it
Let’s jack up our game speed by 1.25. Roy now averages
28.25 points
6.38 assists
5.88 rebounds
2.5 turnovers
When you run those numbers, you get 1 comparison.
1991-1992 Michael Jordan
30.1 points
6.1 assists
6.4 rebounds
2.5 turnovers
Bit less scoring, little more assists, little less rebounds, same turnovers. Now tell me, do we want a clone of 1991-1992 Jordan? I sure wouldn’t mind it!
