re: Time for some changes

It feels strange to criticize an offense that is just outside of the top 10, but I imagine some of the problems with how we run offense manifest in our putrid defense.

I don't fault Gentry's system--instead, I look at a team full of players incapable of making split-second decisions. You can pretty much go down the roster and find that there aren't a lot of players who are quick to recognize a defense overplaying something. Some players make this recognition look effortless; most of ours make it look like the opposite. They're 2-3 seconds slow on everything. Add 3-5 non threats on offense to a low IQ team and this is what it looks like. I am honestly amazed that our offense has been this efficient so far.

I like many of the options that you named, but not a huge fan of Lawson. Maybe his dribble-driving is what we need to have a healthier flow to our offense, but given his character issues and defense (unless something has changed that I don't know about), I think he's a poor fit.
