The players who aren’t playing are a much bigger issue than the ones who are. We essentially are only playing 6 guys.

Does anyone on this board want Mahaney or Ross on the floor? We needed these guys this year and they have melted into puddles. Reed doesn’t play as much because Samson can recover on defense much better, but Samson is always out of position and constantly recovering. It’s a Catch-22 when your guards are just abysmal at stopping the drive.

The biggest eye opener for me is this team is just utterly lacking urgency. We are slow on our feet, we are slow to the air, and we are slow to the close out. The athleticism is there, but it looks like they’re moving in quicksand all game long. Our set plays move 2 gears slower and take 8 seconds longer to get a shot.

Hurley all year has been saying this group needs to be “coached different.” He can’t yell at them as much or be as critical as he was in years past….this is the big red flag I’ve seen coming since November.
