Like what? You can't make them better free throw shooters, that is something they have to have a want to do on their own. You can't make Simmons into something that he is not, aggressive and an inside banger, you can't make guys who can't shoot the ball into shooters. You can't play more aggressive defense with out the refs calling more fouls than they already do, our bigs, victor and simmons, are always in foul trouble right from the start of every game for ticky tack calls as it is. You can't make unintelligent players suddenly to become intelligent. Coach Jones (or Coach K if it were the case) is just doing the best that can be done with a very ragtag group of players to work with who have many huge holes in their games.

Yeah, Coach K wouldn't do any better with this team.

You're right.

This is wrong on so many levels.

Remind me again who's responsible for assembling this "ragtag group of players?"
