• Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr has always harped on his team's carelessness with the ball and tendency to turn it over.
• That problem is rearing its head in the Western Conference Finals, where the Warriors trail the Houston Rockets 3-2 and face elimination on Saturday.
• Over the past two games, the Warriors have done almost everything better than the Rockets, except for taking care of the ball — Golden State has turned it over nine more times than Houston in those games.
• Those lost possessions could make a huge difference in two games decided by seven total points.
