We can easily win every game if the turnovers simply just stop

Kuz needs to continue to be aggressive sitting in the corner a little too much still. it’s ok to be there at times to space the floor but 2nd & 3rd quarter he disappeared and I blame doc he needs to get him involved pin downs, post ups, he always cutting we NEED to find him
