We're playing 5 out, 1vs5 offense, everyone mispositioned and misaligned, and everyone has the green light.
Constant whining and complaining about Sheppard lol well they got what they wanted and that game solidified what scouts and the league already know about him
didn’t you read what i sent you? That’s not their structure. Everyone on the coaching staff contributes to the offensive philosophy and tactics
This is inaccurate. He’s been successful as a head coach and no one can doubt or deny it as much as they hate him. The point is he took Pop’s coaching philosophy of not having designated coaching roles but coaching with collaboration and autonomy. Also what did Pop do without great players or a stacked Spurs team?
Except they weren't great screens... he does create space with his shot, but with a good screen that roll to pass to Sengun in the middle works way better than it did in game one. I agree the space he creates is on his shot, but with KD or a good screen to either take that extra defender or slow them to the recovery the PNR for Reed and Sengun is effective. I just want a coach with a good offensive IQ and some creativity to look at the players we have on the roster and come up with more than just three ways to start the offense. Then it won't be so god-awfully painful to watch our offense.
My theory is that the difference maker in the coaching staff is not Ime, not the fake shooting coach, not Ivy, but Rockets Legend Tiago Splitter.
Nobody on the Rockets ever sets a good screen (Except for Adams). That must be a coaches choice.The "screens"are only used for the roll, and rarely actually connect with the defender. How do you play a line up of No Durant or Reed, but with Amen, Sengun and tate, it is mind blowing, I do not think that would be enough. I am out on this coaching staff.
again one more game as proof that we need an offense coach, my mom who knows nothing about basketball was saying that this team looks like a bunch of headless chickens running on offense, if Reed is targeted whenever he is on floor defensively, we should do the same thing againgst Kennerd, run every pick and roll involving him, that is the weak link, force Redick to pull his ass off the floor, isnt that obvious, how can u let kennerd torch u for 2 games, and does no adjustments
apparently that is not working right, the offense by committee is not working, so many things can improve, like targetting other teams weak link on defense, freeing KD with elbow pick and rolls, running double screens for Reed to get him open for 3s, so many things, i can not even fathom with that much experience for our coaches, they can not find anything to counter what lakers are doing
im just saying we have a weird team. Like I said it’s over for the league if Amen can shoot pull up jumpers and 3’s consistently. Over. But he can’t. And we lose
I wish we could have landed Michael Malone instead of Ime. Any up and coming offensive genius minds we can poach?
