Give me a coach who is willing play the game to what best suits the players abilities...Its not giving in to the players, it called common sense....You can still have discipline, ball movement, play tough defense and play uptempo...People here think it's one or the other but that just not the case...It's Larry way or no way...Please...
That all sounds great but what does that really entail? Keep in mind so many of these guys (Crawford, Curry, Francis, Taylor, Marbury, Malik, James, Jalen) are guys who've been hard to fit into ANY system.
It's one thing to take a difficult to fit guy and work him into a working system. Sometimes that can succeed, sometimes not. Imagine Francis going to San Antonio. Pop wouldn't reinvent his system around Francis, he'd require him to adapt. But in this case your asking brown to invent a system around a bunch of misfits. It's like telling brown you want him to make a reliable car out of an assortment of parts from bicycles, surfboards, boats and airplanes.
Sure, "adapt to your parts"
sounds like a lofty ideal, but in this case that's a mishmash.
