Assists and turnovers

Georgia was absolutely abysmal in assist to turnover ratio last year (324th in the nation, to be exact), so this surprised me:
The sophomore guard leads the Southeastern Conference and ranks 14th in the nation in assist to turnover ratio.
If you want to know why the Bulldogs are playing so well, J.J. Frazier's play at the point is a good place to start.  If Charles Mann can continue to develop his jump shot, Georgia has a deadly 3-guard lineup with Frazier, Mann, and Kenny Gaines.  And if Mann is the one with the ball, Frazier and Gaines make a deadly combo from 3-point land.

Also, just for good measure, there's this:
He also leads the SEC and is third nationally in free throw percentage at 92.9 percent on 26 of 28 from the line.
Now that is the kind of thing that gets me all tingly inside.
