Did JB really say this is his best team?
Didn't he say Chukwu is "going to block a lot of shots this season?" He has already been marginalized. We were back to Lydon playing the 5. After only two real games. Can we not speak of this as a bad assessment by JB? Or is everything JB says like a biblical prognostication? We have to interpret it in such a way that will Make it true?

We have some facts that are at odds with each other. 
• It takes time for kids to learn the zone. Yet, we know that they're only going to be with us for between 1 and 4 years, with varying amounts of actual playing time, and those kids are constantly changing, so is it any wonder we often have spans in between when our zone is actually effective? Right now It's a liability against good teams. 
• If we practice zone, how is the offense getting a god sense of how to attack m2m in practice? And if we sometimes (only sometimes?) practice man, to give the offense a practical sense of what they will face in games, how good is that practice defense? Since our game m2m is so bad, the offense isn't getting a good test. So, when they face a REAL m2m team, there is the kind of shell shock we saw against SCarolina.
