Mosley is known for player development and defense. It's okay for him to have to work on being a good offensive coach.

Isaac looks like he's been slowly getting more of his mobility back. He's getting more stocks

Reminder, he started last season poorly from 3 and ended the season on a heater

No head coaches are solely responsible for offense and defense, this is why there are assistant coaches. I'm also not forming opinions on offenses highlighted by 3-5 third stringers playing major minutes in it.
It's a yes or no question.


I think he literally runs what every other team does, but he emphasizes defense first. I personally think he's good or good enough if we have the personnel around him.

I guess you're indirectly responding to my post. No where did I say Mosley specifically. You know he's not the only coach on the team?

So is the roster perfect as is and doesn't have to change and add shooting or scoring or is there enough? Because I see this in 90% of posts. Yes or no question, because if the roster doesn't have enough offensive firepower to be good consistently, it doesn't matter how good a coach is on offense.

Cole having a bad game. AB needs to put him in his place and take the ball out of his hands.

I agree, I think he's likely going to be our best coach ever.

Could've fooled me. Jokic turned him into a traffic cone earlier.

Again, I don't think he's some savant either - if we did then that would be an embarrassment of riches in one coach lol. Just think that you see coaches have good and bad teams because of personnel. Of course there are things we can do better, but I'm going to be more critical with plays being ran when we finally have a full team out there rather than getting the most out of 3rd stringers missing open shots

If he’s getting more stocks, he’s losing liquidity, not gaining mobility

AB please bring the ball up the floor if you're trying to become our future PG. Take it away from Cold.

Cole throws a grenade to AB and AB banks it in. I can't stand Cole.

Jokic is bottom heavy, which makes his rotational energy massive & quick. It's why his spin moves are nearly unstoppable
