Oh, sorry re my post about scouting. It woke up the regular smart alecs on CF. It was meant to be a peek at the point of view of the posters on this thread who were responding to the OP's question. I have been on CF for quite a while now, and I know quite well that this site has been more of an outlet for fans than a source of any input for the FO. Carry on.
Its the players, but the coaching is there, there just not on the same page. I mean it could be the youth, and inexperince to close out games in 4th. Against Sacramento : When Jabari hit that 3 in 4th, it was 100-86, Sac goes on a 12-0 run Forced shots, lack of defense, and turnovers down the stretch in 4th. They looked puzzled in what plays they should run. I mean hey? maybe we need a better floor general out there to run plays. There in need of a good point. They need to try to run play that work, things seems good but when you let the other team back in it, and you just seem dead in the water, your not going to get many wins in this league. Atleast play defense in 4th if you want to close out some games.
Hmm maybe too early? I asked Luther Head a few years ago at 24 hour fitness if he ever went on the BBS, he laughed and said I checked it out, but players knew about it on the team. lol
if he does I'd like to suggest he do everyone here a solid and convince Tilman to book Severo at halftime
It's both. The coaches are feeling themselves and the players are feeling themselves. Everyone has that I made it mentality, job is done, I'm content being mid.
Let me preface this by saying overall, both team and coaching is much improved from last year. Yeah yeah yeah we lost to bum teams a couple of times. So what? Its an 82 game marathon not a sprint, we should judge the team by the overall body of work. https://www.nba.com/stats/teams/advanced-leaders As you can see Rox are top 5 in both offense and defense. In fact along with OKC they are in the top 5 for both. The team IMO is hampered by lack of experience, our players are young and Ime is also young for a coach and dont have decades of experience other coaches have. What needs to happen is just cleaning up on substitutions, rotations and execution of plays. Hopefully Ime and the coaching staff improves on this as the year goes on.
agree, this is more on the coaches, we know we miss a guard, that is why we have bottom feeders on turnovers per game, and coaches need to come up with a plan to help the team turn the ball less times, we are making up the turnovers with offensive rebounds, but some nights u just can not turn the ball over that many times and expect to win
