It&#8217;s like homeopathy claiming there is &#8220;new research coming soon&#8221; to prove it works.  Yeah well it&#8217;s been several centuries without proof that homeopathy works.  And eleven seasons of Giannis in the NBA making turnovers.  And <strong>it&#8217;s getting worse<\/strong>, this year he is on track to break last season&#8217;s record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/greekinter.net\/giannis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-27.png?ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-172\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course he leads the NBA in turnovers for his position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/greekinter.net\/giannis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-28.png?ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-174\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Oh but that&#8217;s unfair.

But that isn&#8217;t even the start of Giannis problems with turnovers.  97th in the NBA this season.
