    I like your thoughts, but a game against GS doesn't really set the bar.

    Weirdly, our strategy for reducing turnovers is to pass less. If our stars create but don't force the action by chaotically dribbling into harm's way, they get to their spots resulting in good possessions. And you're right, forcing turnovers is a must. The better we are off the ball at creating deflections, the better will be. With Covington and Carroll (and maybe Green) this seems possible.

    Both Harden and Russ also get their hands on tons of steals/deflections.

    Bruno will too.

    Not the rebounds or turnovers.

    It's the fouling that need to stop. A smaller lineup is vulnerable to fouling.

    for those wondering if they could do this against a good team, with an all star center...not as dramatic, but out rebounded again last night.

    And still it made no difference.
