Well, his first year, he played 10 games. He actually averaged 9.4 assists/100 possessions though. I excluded that year due to sample size, and sample size alone.Ok, Kawhi Leonard didn't average more assists per 100 poss than Collin until he was 28
I think Lowry improved his assist game, but you say that if you don't look at the first 2 years he played and adjust for pace I am completely wrong.
You're fine to look at his second year (his first full season) where he averaged 7.1 assists per 100 possessions. Still, a substantially larger number than anything Sexton has done.
Why wouldn't you adjust for pace? It doesn't make sense not to. Even you adjusted for per 36, because it makes sense to compare equal minutes, just as it makes sense to compare equal possessions.
Kawhi is a good comp in terms of being a facilitator and I've never doubted Collin's ability to turn into a good secondary guy as Kawhi has, or Tatum, or any other guy of that ilk.
