Did the Indiana Pacers Solve Their Turnover Problem?

In the first 53 games of the season, the Indiana Pacers were ranked 24th in the league in turnovers, after the All-Star Break they’re ranked 9th as they’ve shaved 2.2 off their average.

The problem is, it hasn’t translated into any better offense. Turnovers, or the lack of, hasn’t correlated with offensive efficiency. Their offensive rating in the last 14 games stands at 101.4, and before the All-Star Weekend, it was 102,

They’re only passing the ball six times less a game than in the first half of the season, so it isn’t as if they’ve started running a bunch of isolation plays and cut down on turnovers by not even bothering to pass.
