I'll say at this point I don't think there's a lot of offensive talent, and you would struggle to get above average numbers from this group. But I also don't think they're always put in great situations to succeed, either.I am by no means a basketball expert so someone enlighten me please. Are our offensive struggles just a lack of x's and o's and gelling together, or is it just talent? Because even when we got open looks, we couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. I think it's both. I think our offense is very predictable, which is why we turned the ball over a million times last night and then we just can't shoot.
It's less X's and O's for me and more about what I believe to be coachable/fixable things that either didn't get better or got worse on offense throughout the year. We've heard players got benched for defensive lapses, but then there are guys who repeatedly have awful turnovers because of just laziness both passing the ball and catching the ball, not to mention poor ball handling. (My big hope in the portal is this is addressed) I'm not convinced something like going to meet the ball as someone passes it to you is actually a talent thing, really.
I think things get a lot better if you have more guys who can stress the defense and create more space to work with. I just also would be lying if I said I thought they did the little things on offense that help maximize their ability on that end. Things like ball handlers not setting up screens well have cost this team a lot of points this year. Like I said, though, these things can be addressed though and would imagine it looks better with both more talent in the future and more emphasis on those things.
