The former is more damaging because it often leads to a fast break basket for the other team. With the latter, you lose possession but at least you have a chance to set your defense.
Well Texas had 7 steals in Nov. vs. 4 last night, so I'd guess the former game had more live ball turnovers. But I'm not sure if that tells the whole story.
Texas points off turnovers in November - 12
Texas points off turnovers in March - 15
But here is a big difference:
Texas fast break points in November - 12
Texas fast break points in March - 0
