00:00 That was ugly.
00:01 And the game truly boils down to one thing and one thing only and that's turnovers.
00:06 We had 16 turnovers in the first half.
00:09 You put yourself so far behind the curve when you have 16 turnovers and a half.
00:16 The other team is taking way more shot attempts than you.
00:20 It's hard to set your defense when you have that many turnovers.
00:25 And it's hard mentally to come out of halftime when you're down 20.
00:31 This is an area that has been problematic at times this year.
00:36 And we are either going to dig in and have the ability to learn or
00:41 we're gonna have to make some real changes with who's playing in the games.
00:46 Because 16 turnovers and a half is unacceptable.
00:53 And that's not who we wanna be as a team.
00:58 That's not what I want our team to be known as.
01:01 That's not what I want our program to represent.
01:04 And so it's gonna take some real collective work and
01:10 it's gonna take everybody taking responsibility for
01:16 their own part and where we are right now as a team.
01:22 That's me included.
01:24 But if we are gonna get where we ultimately wanna go, every person,
01:29 I've said this a bunch this year and I'm not gonna stop saying it.
01:33 Every person has to take responsibility and
01:36 every person has to do their job better.
01:38 And that's truly what it comes down to.
01:40 But I don't know an NBA game that you can play in and
01:44 have 16 turnovers and a half and win.
