We have the things we need to be good. Its really on Pope to get it out of them.

Williams is a heck of a player. He needs more minutes.
Wilkins does a lot of things well and can D.
Zoom is out of control. Reign him im and he can be a positive.
I like Hawthorne. Making rookie mistakes, but he will be a player at both ends.
Momcilovic is a beast. Pope needs to run offense for him, screens, So, whatever is takes. He is a smart player as well.
I am hoping Kam comes back strong.
McBride is like Zoom. Trying to do to much.
N'Diaye's value is at the defensive end. He needs to quit jacking it up from 3.
Big Frank is what he is. A few minutes a night sub and 5 fouls in the post.
Moreno needs to man up. Lots of talent, plays to soft.

Defensive rotations are atrocious. We need to define roles on offense and stick to them. This could be molded into a good team. No excuses for Coach Pope if they aren't

Mom not being able to get shots. 3 attempts in the first half can’t happen.
He needs to stand around less and move without the ball more. And the team needs to rotate the ball more and not take every 3 off the first pass. Too much impatience in the first half which was covered up when they were hitting 3's, exposed when they starting building a new wall on the court with all the bricks they were throwing up...

Guys making interior cuts all the time but guards are too busy dribbling around the perimeter to even see them. How does Pope not see that?

This is spot on.

It's clear Moreno did NOTHING in the offseason to fix his soft hands issue. So infuriating to watch someone with his talent play so SOFT and not be able to control with strength.
