• Observation

  Watching Spurs and Pistons, I have confirmed a few thoughts.

  A] Our bigs are soft as Charmin, especially when they screen and rebound (except JJ on the glass).

  B] We NEED to run more PnR/PnPop (since Trae left we very rarely implement that). We get very few easy looks and our offence just seems like such a struggle 75% of the time, unless we swing it until an open look happens.

  C] We NEED a PG who can playmake and pass at a high level to take some pressure of JJ (contrary to some peoples belief we absolutely miss Trae (especially a guy like Zac)).

• Snyder's Weakness

  I had this theory on Snyder's coaching weakness and the recent Landale interview added more evidence to it.

  in a nutshell it's just that he thinks a scheme/system/strategy or whatever you want to call it trumps everything else. in other words, if you have created a superior offensive or defensive plan then the personnel on the court or the ease of execution should not matter much.

  This is why he'll have Kispert/Mcollum/Vit/Luke in the game so much even in crunch time when defense is crucial. It is like he is saying the skill set on the floor is not as important as everyone communicating and executing this superior strategy. But in reality guys who are chairs on defense get burned no matter how brilliant the overall strategy.

  On offense too.. even in the 4th quarter yesterday, coming out of a timeout needing a basket desperately yes, they get a clean 3 point look for.... Dyson Daniels. Like the plan didn't account for the fact that the open player is maybe the worst shooting guard in the league.

  Even the ZR saga... he could make 2 or 3 great defensive plays but be slow in deciphering where to go on defense one time and McCollum replaces him only to get torched even though he correctly followed the defensive rotations.

  Just seems like Quin's stubbornness to stick to strategically superior game plans will be his undoing no matter how brilliant they are.

• At this point, Zacch should now understand that passing up shots hurts him more than missing them or turning them over trying to make a play.

  Hey Zacch I know you're reading a lot of social media so if you see this...

  JUST SHOOT THE FUCKING BALL!

  Getting tired of watching him passing up shots, playing scared or playing the 'right' way.

  If you are not shooting, you are not a threat and you aren't contributing and that is why you get benched.

• Henri Veesaar with the Cavs pick?

  Henri Veesaar with the cavs pick, or try to trade back if you think he's gonna be available later, but im thinking he goes from late first round to middle first round with a strong late season push, especially if Caleb Wilson comes back and they make a deep post season run.

  He has proven throughout the year he can play fluidly with an athletically elite 4. If you haven't watched UNC this year, the big big action between him and Johnson is a thing of beauty.
