Regardless, turnovers in basketball just don't affect the outcome of a game the way turnovers in football do. I forget the actual percentage, but when an average NFL team turns the ball over 3 or more times, the percentage chance of winning drops to nearly zero. In basketball, teams regularly turn the ball over 5-10 times a night, and it doesn't have that much effect on whether the team wins or loses. Yes, it costs them points, but not necessarily Ws. In football, every turnover can have huge implications.


Case in point, didn't the Fever win anyway?
