Lee is a new coach and is figuring it out, but I'm hugely impressed with how we had league worst DRTG and DRB% to start the season, then essentially switched to having top 10 DRTG and league best DRB% without any infusion of talent. That shows me that he can recognize issues and can scheme around it.
I am bothered less by our offensive performance because I think a lot of our struggles tie to folks trying to get comfortable with his system.
this is the same small noise like "best defense of all time with Diabate in the lineup and worst all time without" stuff that you see floating around twitter
at the end of the season we will be floating around 20-25th in ORTG and DRTG like we are now, worse if the injuries start hitting again.
just want to reiterate that i'm not asking for much from these guys, i promise. i hold this roster in low regards in its level of talent and a top draft pick should be the target. I'm asking Peterson to get us an actual back up point guard, I'm asking to get an actual big man so we aren't starting Grant Williams or Taj Gibson at center, not so we can win, simply so we can play some functional grown up NBA basketball. I'm not asking Lee to have us performing like the Celtics, I'm asking why we can't inbound the ball, why we can't handle a press. Why we have the laziest, most braindead turnovers quarter after quarter. Why we have issues that no other team I watch seems to have nearly like we do.
i promise you guys my standards are not high. I'm a 20 year Bobcat fan, I can sniff out a Bobcats team pretty easily and this is one of them.
