Be interesting to see how long this holds.
But through 3 games, we have more Steals than TOs. And not just 1 or 2 more, 76% more steals than TOs (30 to 17), ratio of 1.76.

Since 2000 (as far back as my personal stats go), we've had only 12 players with a Steal:TO ratio => 1.0. The highest Team ratio over that period of time was Tubby's last good team (2005) with a ratio of 0.71.

These are the type stats that lead to championship type teams. Great defense, IMO, is what wins championships. You can have a off night offensively and still win a game with great defense but if you have a off night defensively your going home a loser. This team has the speed and length, especially when the big get health, to be an elite defensive team.
