Willie Green is an excellent defensive coach. We all know that. But this roster doesn’t hang its hat on its defense. Obviously we need to play defense, we’re not the Pacers, but the issue is Willie Green’s coaching style does NOT fit this roster.
The second most frustrating thing as a fan is having a roster with no shooters (my other team is the raptors, trust me, i know).
The most frustrating? Having a team FULL of shooters and your coach still runs lineups with CJ as the only shooter in the clutch. We even run no shooter lineups. It’s exhausting.
Another note: We’ve blown 7 20 pts leads this year. That’s no coincidence. In modern NBA, when you go up considerably, you go all in on offense and keep the pressure on that end, and the other team won’t catch up. Willie, instead, being tunnel visioned on defense, goes to defensive lineups over and over and because this is the NBA and because it’s 2023, teams fight back into it.

I’m tired, y’all.
