Here is the reality on "running an offense ".....

I cant imagine an explanation for the last game

Yep. And if he was still too hurt to be effective, then he shouldn't have played

I would’ve ran pick and roll with Ace and Dylan all day with 2 out of Martini, Acuff, PJ, or Grant on the wings to shoot 3s. But oh well.

Williams, Davis, and Derkack just created alot of redundancy and took the ball out of mostly Dylan’s hands but Ace, as well. Made no sense.

Breaking News: Career sub 25% 3pt shooters aren't a threat from 3

If HC Pike and staff wanted shooters then he would recruited them.

This is why it's a system and staff problem first - then a player problem second.

That's why he brought in Martini and Hayes but both busted. If even one was a legit 3 point weapon it would have made a difference

This coaching staff is H-O-rrendous

2 bench players? That was the great shooting hope?

As opposed to JWill, Derkack, Davis, Grant, Dortch and Acuff.

Is was possible to consider surrounding Ace, Dylan and our low post centers with multiple shooters at one time.

Not even including Lathan/Ogbole (although many other teams have centers who can at least make a 3 on occasion. Lathan is 1-7 and Ogbole never took one.)
Hoping for a shooting threat a center is just a bridge too far.

not to steal @rutgersal playbook.....they probably didn't have to.

The Derkack "signing" was the biggest head scratcher. Guy comes from a program that plays zone and has a big sample size of being a bad shooter. He is a terrible fit. He is a terrible defender AND he can't shoot.

and may lead the league in being rejected by a backboard.
