WW obviously knows more basketball than me but I think they should press a little more. Speed the game up and not have to rely on positional defense as much. Seems like the team plays better when the game is sped up.

Although you'd probably have to go deeper than a 7 man rotation and that doesn't seem like something he likes to do.

And that is his biggest weakness. He doesn't view bench players as as option. That he can't coach one up enough to play defense and set screens on offense is a major issue. Personally I think they are capable, but WW doesn't have any confidence in using them.

Basically if his starters don't get it done, he will stick with them well past most coaches will (ie Tremont Waters last year).
