This is where the coach needs to step up and call some set plays. All one on one.

I don’t see the optimism with this team. I’m expecting a whole lot of packed in zone defenses going forward as we may actually be worse at outside shooting than last year. Ugboh is seemingly clueless, we turn the ball over at a high rate, mostly because we put ourselves in bad positions. We also seem to be really selfish offensively...no ball movement. The defense is running around with no purpose and we are hoping teams shoot poorly against us. Worst part is we have ZERO depth. Haywood looks lost.
hope the prove me wrong but I’m seeing much to be optimistic about.

Haith stepped up and puts Igboh and Haywood in for crunch time. ................
Do you have this post on rapid repeat because I feel like this has been the same thing for the last 7 years
Maybe it's the lack of practice due to covid, but we don't look coached. We look like a Penny Hardaway team.
Haith's teams always seem to look like this early though. Maybe I'm just torturing myself hoping/expecting different

Accurate but we are also two games in and we can clean up this kind of play. Maybe we won't but the issue isn't talent or ability. It's bad offense and bad rebounding. Clean up our turnovers and we are much better almost half are unforced. Clean up our rebounding and we can win, that's about technique and buy in.
Do both and we can be a really good team whether or not our outside shooting shows up.
Whoever has the ball is going to take it. Williams trying to make a poster dubk when he has an easy dish to Jackson. Guys driving and throwing it up in traffic. Jacking up threes 2 seconds into the shot clock. Pass the dang ball people
And it’s the guards missing. Joiner, Jackson, KES all look clueless at the line. What have they been doing since last March?
Our departed assistant apparently was the one responsible for those quick sets. As well as our zone responsibility switches. Of course a lack of cohesive practice time may also mean they haven't got the repetition to get them locked in.
Remember he will get things going after game 10 as always but this year that may be too late
Actually I’m usually one of the melters
I was trying to be a little more patient this yearThis is a Haith November team. Same every year. Come January we'll be good, but really needs to happen sooner
Wow. Pretty rough. It will be interesting to see how we’re going to consistently score this season.
I have no idea what Haith is doing. These are correctable issues from the bench. He either has no answers or he needs to sit the players who are not putting out the effort to complete the adjustment.
I have seen three possessions this whole game with good ball movement. Mostly drive into trouble. One pass or no pass, bad shot. That is terrible for a pick up game, much less organized high level play.

I’m afraid we will be talking all year about our trading Wainwright for Toby Lane. I watched many practices where Wainwright was the supreme teacher.
So when's the first call 
for Haith's head on a Pike, and to hire Wainwright.
