re: Anybody still want to make excuses for this team’s perimeter defense

This team doesn’t do anything well fundamentally. They exercise per shot selection, they don’t make crisp, accurate passes, they don’t rebound well, they don’t play sound defense, they don’t drive to the basket, they don’t hustle and they don’t play with pride. Almost all of these things fall on the coach.

Edit to say we also can’t inbound the ball effectively.

Edit to emphasize we REALLY can’t rebound. We regularly give up inside position (this is just a lack of effort and desire). It’s as if nobody knows how to block out (this is technique).
