IMHO, his turnovers would be considerably less than they are if he made the
outlet pass and then filled a lane, instead of his propensity for bringing
it up himself and initiating the offense.  To me, this is one of Obie's
biggest warts.  Perhaps that will change after the job Banks did last night
in the 2nd half.

It's not as if Paul will never see the ball again if he gives it up early in
the possession or anything.
