Message: [QUOTE="CardiacCuse, post: 4972224, member: 6979"] similarities I have observed: 1. almost exact same (ineffective) offense - relying on 1 on 1 iso plays with poor ball movement and a lack of basic cohesion that almost all other p5 teams seems to easily have 2. almost absolutely nothing on offense from centers 3. similar ideas with roster constuction - bring in centers that offer nothing on offense - stick with forwards that do not fit the system and cannot provide the neccesary contributions that their positions demand 4. using combo guards on offense instead of an actual PG - trying to play without a true PG 5. playing a forward out of position at center 6. totally imbalanced roster 7. shortening rotation as the season goes on - benching players like cuffe and hima, meanwhile the starting guards and brown cannot play 40 minutes - gassed teams that fold down the stretch was a hallmark of late era JB 8. nonsensical sub patterns 9. complete indifference to rebounding in strategy and roster construction 10. telling players to not even go to the free throw line for offensive boards 11. only pressing when down 20+ 12. slow down offense when leading late in a game that ruins offensive efficiency and makes the game closer than it otherwise would be 13. relatively small amount of assists 14. extreme loyalty to inadequate players thats all I can think of in a few minutes off the top of my head yeah there have been some changes...but mostly cosmetic, imo I also feel this way bc I watched a JB interview this season and h basically said he interacts with the team heavily...its obvious to me yeah better players will help...but I really wish there had been a clean break when I see so many issues from recent seasons seem here to stay [/QUOTE]
