Hey, Hawks Coach, I have a question (with apologies to the refs). We also track similar stats. Do you reward a player who ties up an opponent with 1/2 steal, or is it just listed under the team totals? Do you reward a player who draws a charge "a steal"? We consider that a "forced turnover", and keep it as a separate category. If we force a 5-second inbounds violation, or a 10-second backcourt, we consider that a team forced turnover.
Great question. We also use the forced turnover stat - went to it last year. It allows us to differentiate between the clean steal and all the other stuff. We will also split a forced turnover if we feel that 2 players contributed. 10 seconds is a tough one, but you don't get more than 1-2 per game.
