    Devion, Molinar and DJ aren't slow. It's our style of play that's slow.

    Do I need to list all the ways that's not a comparable situation? Nah, not worth it.

    DJ isn't fast. He's a big physical guy but he's not fast. He needs to improve it and his bad habit of falling off his shot. Molinar and Smith are it. Smith can fly.

    DJ may not be fast but in half court he can explode to the hole or blow by his guy when he sees the open. At 6-6, his ball handling gets a little loose.

    fast is good. but I will take ball skills over speed. the value of a possession needs to be emphasized. I'll take a slower point guard who doesn't make cross court passes that the other team dunks. Or A pg that can shoot 75% from the free throw line. We are on record as a good offensive rebounding team--But you can't rebound a turn over. We rebound 30% of our misses. If we have 21 turnovers a game that is 7 rebounds we don't get.

    to me the main problem Ben has is his inability to change defenses. Our man defense stunk--so why not a trap or some zone.. anything to disrupt the offense besides them bombing open 3s and driving by for layups.

    That was optimistic of you, but you weren't far off. Just add a few more and you're right on it.
