The big thing for us is we only had 1 turnover

When we have problems is when people force a lot of turnovers

One thing going in is Wisconsin doesn't seem to force a lot of turnovers. That is great because we are shooting 53%

Quick start and put this one away. Empty the bench with 7 minutes left. No second half sleep walking Bears.

Getting 83% FT shooting from 61% FT or less players is really helping.

We're getting the ball into the paint with ease. If we had an even halfway decent 5 from an offensive perspective, he'd have 20 points by now.
