When there's limited practice time for a team like this it's the opposite of what we need.
Crutcher is fantastic and a deadly scorer but he's doesn't have the raw athleticism to go 1 on 3 and score consistently. Ibi is not overly athletic. Our centers are mountainous but not basketball players. Chatman is 170 pounds soaking wet. Amzil is not a high flyer or a physical beast.
BG's old teams would be built for this, get out and run and get after it. I doubt there's a 40" vertical leaper on the whole team, maybe Blakeney?

Finn wasn't a bad athlete for his size but I at least never considered him someone a great athlete. To me he was the textbook old school back to the basket center not a high Flyer
Monster got Ibi. Crutcher wouldn't be considered a potential NBA prospect if he didn't have athleticism. You can see it when he attacks the basket. He's not Marcus Johnson tier but he's a good one
