That's a loaded comment.
Do you mean that our coaching won't be to the level we expect until year 3 or that our junior class is pulling the team down?
Both.
Fair enough. I think our juniors are a talented group...Haase just seemed to be able to squeeze more out of them than Ehsan has been able to.
Don't know if that was motivation or game-planning and managing. Maybe it's a combo of those things, too.
They are talented. But for whatever reason, they are not consistent. They don't play hard all the time, and they don't want to play defense unless it is blocking a shot.
Maybe next year's hashtag should be #StealCity

The coaches allow them to stay on the floor. You have to send a message that you will not accept that level of effort. All it takes is effort to box out. No talent is necessay.
Coaches have subbed and changes starting lineup. Sometimes you can't motivate people.
They're not great together one should play with Tosin and the other Smallwood.

I completely agree. I just think our coaching staff is too accepting of their lack of effort.

Why not let Lee move to the 3 and let Cokley and Mehinti work inside? Next year plug in the good 4/5 we're gonna add late. Nick and either Hurtado or Bryant as interchangeable PG/SG's.

I totally agree Lee could play the three with Gueye, that backcourt could work.

What caused the tech on Rob? I'm at the doctor with my daughter and I don't have access to video or radio.
