Unforced Turnovers (Total turnovers – the other team’s steals = unforced turnovers) November: Totals: 88 – 46 = 42 vs. 110 – 55 = 55 We were 2-0 when we won this stat.

He wants it to make up for a deficit in rebounding, (it’s hard to block out in a zone). We’ve done a pretty good job of engineering an advantage here but it hasn’t guaranteed victory.
