Just curious, how is this unique to us?

There are multiple squads with new coaches that are in win now mode that had a condensed offseason that are playing their rookies more than we are.

I’d say there aren’t a ton of teams built around three players 23 and younger, with two other second year 1st round rookies 8 and up on the depth chart, that lost their head coach, brought in a new one, are attempting to implement a new system on both sides of the ball AND are laser focused on trying to win and get into the playoffs(and not just in the way some GM’s give lip service as to not tank lockerroom morale ala the Hinkie Sixers)

As we have clearly seen our learning curve is coming together slower, and we are still attempting to fully flesh out the new offensive system.

Maybe there are some other teams like that, but I’m not really seeing them?

But like I said again, I personally do not agree with what we are doing. I think this team should be building a culture, yes, but this playoffs at all costs mentality is stupid. We aren’t that team yet and this ain’t that roster. If I am Griff I would be telling SVG just take it slow and steady and work in all our guys and if we start winning basketball games and push for the playoffs, great! If not, at least we aren’t hindering valuable development opportunities for our young guys and forgoing the chance to even see if guys like Kira are going to be the right fit and how.
