    We have one too many “high energy guys” on the bench. They’re all great, but there are only so many minutes to hand out. I think one of them will have to go, but I don’t think it should be Derrick. He’s a great defender, and would be a lot more useful on offense if we had better movement. A guy that can jump out of the gym needs to be getting the ball on the move more, and it never feels like he gets those opportunities.

    Then again, it doesn’t feel like we play to our roster’s strengths much at all anyway.

    Djj was excellent pretty much every time he got extended run last year, I spent a lot of games wondering why he wasn’t getting any run. I hope we’re able to find more minutes for him next year.

    Way too many times this dude was left wide open in the corner on offense to brick a 3. We didn’t use him properly at all.

    I feel like every time this guy was on the court he was blocking a dude 6 inches taller than him then getting a put-back at the other end. I hope we find a bigger role for him fs
