The subs... jeez... let these guys get in a groove. Other than that, decent D outside of the three point line.

Outside of a couple of possessions where we got beat off the dribble opening up kick out 3's, not a bad defensive first half against team averaging 85 in their last 4 games.

Some of his substitutions are just ??????

We have to capitalize. Couple point blank layups missed. Couple 3s rattled out

I think he subs to give the impression that he is doing something? 
Posted on 12/15/18 at 11:18 pm to Elleshoe
Agreed. Dude subs a ton

Either way he appears engaged and is actively coaching.

He's still learning. He has moments where he subs a guy just bc said player pissed him off on a play

Should you be coaching? Not sure.

Bench gets experience and legs stay fresh of it works

Sure but I think some guys need to get in a rhythm

Players coming in and out don't really have a chance to get into the flow of the game. Wades biggest challenge is getting playing time for these guys, but you have to let them play for more that 3 minutes at a time

Hopefully there is a grander plan with all the fast and furious substitutions. Right now, it sure seems like it is making it difficult for players to establish roles. There are so many unique combinations of 5 players on the court throughout a given game. It’s great that we have depth and can keep fresh legs, just gotta figure out a steady rotation that works.

I don't disagree. I thought Williams needed to stay in longer at the beginning. The offense flowed much better with him out there
Posted on 12/16/18 at 9:59 am to jmarto1
At the end of games when we’re closing out with a lead I think Reid needs to be off.

I agree we do sub to much. Tremont got in a rhythm and we took him out. Taylor was playing great on both sides, took him out.
I get the fresh legs and trying to figure out a rotation but we got to get these guys in some kinda groove. I think by SEC play this will stop though

Yea this is a problem. People were saying last week it was due to foul trouble. But it isn’t.

It's much different in the NBA, where they play 82 games, 4 per week, and the games are 20% longer.

I thought the rotation of Smart, Mays, Taylor, Williams and Williams or Reid was a decent line up with Days and Waters rotating in. We have got to get Taylor going. Smart needs to work on his drive to the rim. The rest of Smarts game is pretty good. Maybe use some better shot selection and pull up for jumpers more often or use that tear drop bucket he can do.
All these guys but especially Reid and the Guards have to be more active with rebounding on both ends. We should have killed St. Mary's rebounding and in the paint. Naz needs to also work on how and when to go to the rim while dodging defenders. They have to be more precise with their movements. Know your plan to get there and improvise on the way up. Use that speed when you catch the ball down low going up . Learn how to use both hands also.
They can get soooo much better by doing some of the small things right. Should be night and day by the end of the year with some good coaching. I'm not worried about Will Wade, he'll get the job done.
