Great response.   
My thought is with a more complex & purposeful, higher IQ plan, more movement & seeking out the least challenging shots, our shooting percentages would increase. 
I don't think they have a good plan, or if they do, it's pretty thin, & breaks down easily. 
Of course,  you also need players to execute well...

I didn't like the losing,  but I did enjoy watching Buddy & Jimmy play. They had that old man's YMCA game, which is fun to watch.

At times, the team is fun to watch, but as the Orange nation podcast said & Lawrence Moten agreed, they are consistently inconsistent.  They stop playing for stretches, go through the motions, lack grit. It's brutal for, me at least, to watch.

I don't watch sports for the type of offense or defense the teams are playing. I watch it hoping to catch glimpses of the magic that can come when effort & execution & passion meet and overcome otherwise insurmountable odds.

Agree that Taylor's stagnation really hurts. I don't get it. My only thought is that his role definition is a mismatch with whatever Red wants. I see him deferring,  when he should be a triple threat. This in turn is putting Judah & JJ into more awkward situations.  Instead of driving or shooting,  he's passing to someone who is covered.

I too hope Red can do it. This Freeman kid looks good.
