Spot on. Its the same general player x 4. Offensively Buddy, Jimmy, Cole and JG3 are all below average P5 athletes, slow footed (JG3 might not fall into this category) , are average to poor ball handlers and can't create any separation. They are all good to great shooters, much better then their averages indicate, but it doesn't matter because they can't get the separation and/or consistent 'good looks' due to these weakness. You just can't have 4 of those players on the floor at the same time. Its like having 4 Marius Janulis's of various heights one the floor at the same time. Marius was great in his role on that team, but if he had to create offense everytime in the half court set, it wouldnt have been good.
 Defensively its even worse. In a day and age where everyone can shoot the 3 you need an athletic, long, active zone to have a shot to be successful. This team is almost the exact opposite of that. Whats most concerning is that JB knows this. I can't imagine going into the year he didn't see this.
