Taking the above and looking at it from the outside...
The post is open. I watch Cunningham get open time after time. The ball doesn't make it there. It isn't a Crutcher thing, is is an "everyone thing". Josh will get the guy on his top hip...feed to the left hand and he has the baseline to himself.
The looks on the faces of the players trying to get it into the post remind me of guards I played with back in the day. They wouldn't throw the post feed and had a frustrated look on their face as if they really wanted to get it inside. Not the case.
The offense seems to rely on quickness and no patience. The guys on the floor aren't able to make the quick read, so they are already moving to option 2 or 3 while passing up 1. It was evident by Trey on the last play of the
UMass game. Option 1 was completely abandoned. This happens possession after possession in the half court.
The post feed isn't there and then the post leaves his good position on the block with an uncovered baseline to come up and set a P&R that isn't executed. Then it transitions to a kick out or reversal. Our ball side offense in the 2 man game isn't good. The buckets are coming from put backs, transition, reversals/skips, and the occasional first option...the post or P&R.
There is no patience. They seem to sacrifice quickness for passing up initial options. You can play quick and fast while patient.
