waf is going on with this team?

But don't worry...SVG still gives our guys the green light. He really is a huge part of the problem. Ppl on this forum could invent a more in depth offense. He should tell them for one game...do not shoot a single three...and see what these guys can do when they HAVE to drive it in. Wake up stan

 

I love when people say stuff like this. It means i don't need to pay attention to their opinions anymore.

exactly! you would have thought Stan would have had plenty of time to come up with a game plan that doesn't involve shooting soo many 3's.

 

couldn't we have used these early games to try something different...shoot no more than a 1 3 for the game and find other ways to score

I think SVG is a good coach...and this strategy worked with the personnel we had during our finals run. This is clearly not the same team, yet he has not adapted a new offensive strategy to suit our players skill sets. You criticized my comment, but failed to offer any opposing insight. U think we should keep jacking up 3's?

Jameer Nelson 0 for 15 from the field in two preseason exhibitions. He went 0 for 10 Sunday and is 0 for 5 so far tonight.

 

Dwight wanting an upgrade at PG is getting in his head!!

1. it's naive to think that stan is saying "ONLY TAKE THREES, DON'T DRIVE AT ALL!"

 

2. it's naive to think that when one thing isn't working you should abandon that for the exact opposite extreme

 

3. Our offense is built around player skill sets. If we had players who had driving to the basket as strengths we would develop a different strategy. Right now our best players at each position are Jameer (strength is shooting threes), JJ (strength is shooting threes), Hedo (strength now is shooting threes; can no longer drive), Anderson ( strength is shooting threes), Dwight (low post)

 

4. We need to run more pick and rolls which would get our shooters better looks and would put dwight in motion to get him open.

 

5. When a team full of good three point shooters goes 0-15 something is wrong other than the fact that they all instantly became poor shooters. They're in poor shape and Stan's been running them. That's why every shot looks flat.

Are you surprised? SVG's coaching so far this game has been inexcusable, yet you'll keep finding SVG homers defending him all day. Granted, it is preseason, but my god, i think we're getting a taste of how the rest of the season is going to go.

 

Also, i'd like to add that the PG saga is getting into Jameer's head. He's always been mentally weak.

Quentin Richardson is now my hero.

Also, it looks like we're running some sets from the princeton offense.
