    I mean they are playing exactly how I expected them too. It’s not surprising. This team isn’t going to be even remotely good on that end of the floor they don’t have the players or system.

    Our Defense may look like ASS
    but
    The Lack of Rebounding makes it worse

    I believe this is like if a team fired its shooting coaches and guys mechanics all go bad.

    this team is just not getting coached defense. It just isn’t happening

    MDA’s defense was very very good when they went back to the switch scheme.

    they're exactly three games into the season with a rookie head coach and not a game yet where the whole squad is healthy and ready to play. but you're right. this team is doomed. :rolleyes:

    Stop trying to win this interaction.

    actually look at what I said.

    I don’t think you ever do that. It’s just emotion.

    Sucks as soon as Cousins comes in there is a and 1 foul then next possession on defense miss then offensive rebound then score.

    They were doomed when they swapped Roco for Wood.

    you're giving yourself a bit too much credit in calling this an "interaction" :D
