  1. Ant and kat have too many turnovers. Kyle has been surprisingly sloppy at times too.

  2. 15 turnovers per game on the season. That’s 23rd out of 30 teams. It’s not good and the blurb is spot on about needing to clean that up for a deep playoff run. The majority of our turnovers always seem to be us playing too fast and making dumb decisions with the basketball. We are able to get away with it for now because we have more talent than most teams in the league, but it will catch up with us quick. Just need to play smarter basketball and stop trying to always force these weird passes to Rudy down low because his hands aren’t good.

    I feeling like the turnovers will be cleaned up over time. Ant is sitting at 3.5 turnovers per 36 mins which isn’t terrible considering his role and usage.

    Its a team issue at this point and will slowly get better as cohesion gets better with everyone. As long as they can sit in the middle with turnovers they’ll be fine.

    “This team is legitimately good” this is the first time I can remember hearing this in sooooooooooo long

    Jmac, Naz and Ant Are all really young, with evolving games. Plus, last year we never really had the whole squad together for any amount of time.

    A lot of young confident people have been given a whole bunch of new toys and told the figure it out. if anyone expected this to be tight, safe basketball at the beginning, you may remember your early 20s a bit differently than I

    We have to stop trying to feed Gobert down low. If he’s got sound position on the block, sure throw it to him. But if he’s anywhere else, just don’t throw him the ball. He will make his impact and get his baskets on lobs and rebound putbacks.

    I miss the snarkier version of their power rankings from previous years. _That’s_ what I would like to see here.

    Imagine being a fan of a ‘legitimately good team’
