its the scheme. its not the players. in 2023, the scheme only works if the planets align i.e. perfect roster with experience and talent (which, in this landscape, let's face it, it isnt going to happen)

the most frustrating thing for me as a fan during this stretch of diminshing returns is that there's this vice-grip mentality of unwillingness to change...they say they make adjustments but [I]only within a narrow frame of ineptitude.[/I]

as if somehow playing man to man D would be worse than wide open 3 after wide open dunk after wide open 3 etc....

head in the sand stubbornness

putting the system on a pedestal

it's good when it is good. when it's not...it blows...like it does now.  but total refusal to[I] even consider something else[/I]

it's disrespectful to the fans players and program...

is it because the coach is incapable of implementing something else?

would it take too much work? is he just not "energetic" enough to try putting something else in?

[I][U]the system isnt good enough to stick to it this stubbornly![/U][/I]

opponents are feasting and picking it apart...

they are relaxed on offense knowing they get wide open 3 in ryhtm when they want and uncontested lib dunks etc

I think he just loves basketball and loves being the coach...and will never choose to walk away.

I would be much more supportive if he was trying different things...trying different defenses, etc

trying to run offense that works

7 assists????

pick a random fan from the stands and have them coach vs duke and the team could make 7 assists. 1000% guaranteed.
