My first thought on seeing Shump starting was "Melo doesn't play nice with Shump". Not sure we can expect Melo to take directions from Shump.

Telling guys where to go

Somebody's got to do it?

He actually understands the offense and what is supposed to be done. Showed the same understanding of it in the pre-season.

Acy did the same earlier in the game.

We won every game ACY started preseason & regular season. The spacing and energy is so much better to start games. Don't know what the hell Fisher is doing the last 3 games

He's still tryin stuff out cuz it's so early and we have no PG's. I'm not that worried about how many guys are playing. The moves in this system are the same no matter who is playing. The moves are prescribed and the rules for when to cut are too. The only difference is how you get into the offense which is all messed up cuz our guards are having trouble making the initial read and over dribbling. Not feeding the post and cutting hard. Etc. It matters how you start the play cuz everything after that is effected.

Nix, we can't get any chemistry playin all these guys,why do you think we have a 100 TO's?

I think it's the Guards not making the right decisions with the ball. They have to recognize where to pass and make the D move the way you want. Our guards aren't setting the D up by making the right read.

Your right in a sense, but I have played and watched enough basketball to know that chemistry comes with familiarity, and if everytime you turn around you have a different teammate doing something different, and your not even sure where they want the ball, your going to turn the ball over trying to get it to him.

Yes chemistry is important but in the Triangle HOW you start each set matters. Our guards are not starting the plays right and it's throwing off everything after that.

They set up a triangle, the initial pass is usually good, after that, guys look lost most of the time.

On the defensive end, its even more confusion, and less communication.
