I'm not a basketball expert by any means, but it's pretty clear that the offense needs a major spark and the one consistent bright spot lately is Sanogo.
Every single possession in the half court we run the same exact thing. Weave around the top with the big guy setting useless screens for 25 seconds before we panic and have to force up a garbage look. It's not working, and it's never going to work unless you have Steph Curry to bail you out.
Why does Hurley not plop Sanogo 6 feet from the basket and feed the ball inside to him every single possession. If they don't double him, he's good enough to take his man or draw a foul. Sanogo is shooting 54% from the field. No one else on this team is even over 48% from 2.
If they do double him, pass the ball outside for an open look. Playing some inside-out offense is such a simple concept that works in college every single time. Keeping our best big man 25 feet from the basket for 90% of the shot clock is one of the most idiotic offensive schemes I've ever seen. There is just no explanation for why Hurley has stuck with this.
If the excuse here is that Sanogo is not a great passer, then teach him. Make him a great passer. Our offense needed to change 7 games ago when Bouk went out.
