There is so much standing around after a shot goes up on defense. They just kinda stand around hoping the ball comes to them when it doesn't they continue standing there instead of getting back to their guys.

I'm excited about Josh Jackson. I think we will all be clamoring for a hc change by the mid season mark.
As disappointed as I am in our offense, if we show a big improvement on defense, I won't be pushing for a mid-season change. I don't think it helps the team.

I should rephrase what I meant. I think by mid season we will be pushing for a new coaching staff at the end of the year.

I will say Booker and Bledsoe do pass the ball. They just pass it to each other or a big at the top of the key. :)

I think we are pushing for that now. And last year. I think most folks have been saying we need a new coach when we are planning to start our rise up the standings. That is hopefully next year.

Where is that play where we run Jackson off a screen at the corner or anything besides the fucking weave. TJ at the free throw line? Anything?

Booker has completely given up on playing defense. He was trying hard in the first quarter. Since then, all down hill.

Another Booker shot waved off by a Chandler offensive foul.

Half the team just doesn't look ready for an NBA game. When we catch the ball, the guys aren't ready to do anything with it. Not ready to pass, not ready to drive, definitely not ready to shoot. Guys wait until they've already caught the ball to look around the court and figure out what's happening.

You know, "Let's just see how many points Devin Booker can score" isn't really that fun after all.
