1. the turnovers result from their aggressive offensive style. sometimes their long passes sail out of bounds. sometimes they get caught up in the tall trees when it isn't high percentage. overall, their high speed, advancing style outweighs the turnover margin. imho.

2. the "bigs" handle it damn well now. in the tournament's late stages, any team they're up against will have the same issue, so our ladies will actually have an advantage. imho.

this doesn't imply they will sail through the tourney, but they definitely have the team and the tools to light up grace hall again.

imho.
