The data here on Hollinger's table for turnover ratio is very different than basketball-reference's values (with the same formula) and look way wrong. Do you agree or am I missing something?
Hollinger's turnover ratio data
Re: Hollinger's turnover ratio data
No, you are not missing something. Hollinger's turnover rate presented on ESPN is completely wrong. I already wrote TWO mails in order to tell them, but both got ignored.
It seems like there is an error in the equation used for those numbers. I can reproduce the numbers on ESPN by using:
100*TO/((FGA+0.44*FTA)/2+TO) = TO-R
Btw, it is not the only thing wrong on that page. Pace doesn't look correct either.

Re: Hollinger's turnover ratio data
Hollinger's player TO ratio formula also factors in assists. Is this what he's doing with the teams as well?
TO/((FGA+0.44*FTA)+TO+AST) = TOR
EDIT: NVM, seems like the team data is completely inaccurate
TO/((FGA+0.44*FTA)+TO+AST) = TOR

Re: Hollinger's turnover ratio data
The inclusion is still worth noting. I off & on remember that he does something different there.
