This is why I wasn't totally hating on Barkley when he said he not to drink the kool-aid on our team. I think he should give us more credit but we definitely do still have some major weaknesses.

Finch absolutely has some major work to do in regard to our offense. Its not good. We still don't really have one outside of relying on Ant heavily. We have really limited a lot of what made Towns a big scorer and its harder for him to get his shots and we have failed to find a way to manufacture offense for him when he struggles.

Outside of him we don't have much else when it comes to offensive fire power. It's a really big hole and we are seeing right now that if Ant isn't scoring our offense can totally crater. This is probably going to be our biggest issue all season. Finding some offense.
We need a lot more.

As we could expect we struggle on offense without ANT. Refs don't help us with the fouls. Gonna be much more tough than expected.

It's only pathetic because we can't make a shot! That's pathetic for sure. The rest looks good.

We're coming back down by 6.

Is 5 out really the set we should use with Towns, Naz, and the non-shooters on the floor? I think we should put either Towns or Naz to the low post or elbow to initiate the offense.

Kelly Olynyk looks like the old goat at a petting zoo.
