Where TF is AD?
He CANNOT create his own shot. This board was asking for it repeatedly last season "why aren't we getting AD the ball more in the 4th?" and the answer was the same then too. Giving AD the ball, clearing out and asking him to make something happen is not what he's good at. AD may be the best finisher the game has ever seen, but he can't do it on his own yet. He's not KD or LeBron, he's not even Tim Duncan. All of those guys create about half their shots or more (looking at TD's peak scoring year way back in 2001-02), AD creates less than 30% of his own shots, and I'd be willing to bet a lot of those unassisted baskets are offensive rebounds.
I do think Tyreke would make a night and day difference in the offense, but he's not coming back for another month, so it's on Gentry to improvise. I was firmly team JVG, I sold myself on Gentry after he got the job based on stories about him being willing to try new things and listen to other people. If we keep running this same system with the same results until Tyreke gets back we might as well have stuck with Monty.

Yeah, I wasn't big on the hire (had to change my avatar), but I tried to be optimistic. Not feeling so great about now.

Team VanGundy as well, but I understood the Gentry hire.
Ad HAS to do more and give better effort. It's unbelievable that he has no one-on-one moves yet.

So why do we see him playing at the top of the key or beyond the 3 point line 90% of the game? That's one of the most frustrating things about this offense.
