This was the first game I went to this year. A friend got us tickets a few rows behind the Wolves bench. It was sad to watch.
The team doesn't play well defensively (one pass beat the zone for crying out loud). They don't move the ball that well on offense and if someone takes a shot the other 4 start running back on D right away, no interior help. I also don't understand why we have Al at C and give playing time to someone like Buckner, but don't even see what we have with Green.
I know Green is what he is, but he's still young and getting a few minutes and then yanked isn't doing anyone any good. When Wittman pulled him in the 4th, I yelled "why not let him develop? what are you even here for?" The good thing was Wittman, Taylor, and most of the group around me heard, so that was my highlight.
I know it's not going to be pretty, but I can't believe it's this ugly. We might as well give Richard and Green (and even Brewer) some run since it's not like we're doing great with the rotation we're using.
