This is not all on the Pinson injury. Other teams have figured us out. We have zero offensive identity. Didn’t have one with Pinson in either. This team is just not fundamentally sound. We foul way too much, don’t rebound particularly well, and have not been playing sound defense lately. All recipes for disaster in league play. That’s also on the coaches.

The great start was fools gold. Everyone thought we were world beaters, but we simply were not that good. I don’t care what computers say (lies, damn lies, and statistics). The eyes do not lie. You cannot watch that game yesterday and say we gave great effort.

Against quality competition? Nothing.

Couldn’t agree more. People want every team to look exactly the same. This team isn’t bad at defense because Wade cannot coach defense. It is the make up of the individual players.

Cam is an outstanding offensive player but you can tell he isn’t extremely interested in playing defense the whole game.

Leblanc is the only “rim protector” but he is still pretty raw (look at his silly fouls). Wilk isn’t scared of protecting the rim but he is limited due to his size (love his motor and potential).

Days would be a pretty good defender if he didn’t have so many silly fouls. I think Gaines has a lot of potential if he keeps improving on both ends (gets out of control sometimes on offense and gets a little too aggressive on defense)
