The same players committed the same mistakes, unforced turnovers and lazy D last year under a different coaching staff. All of us have seen this team come out of a timeout in a crucial time in the game and absolutely do crazy stuff. They didn't execute the play the coaches called.
It has nothing to do with trusting the coaching staff. It's simply refusing to be a team player. Not doing whatever it takes to win, playing D, rebounding, fighting for loose balls, hustling back on D, executing the game plan.

I said all of these things BUT I disagree part of it is the coach's fault, His job is to coach and teach. If that isn't getting done properly that is partially on him, yeah the players are screwing up but he hasn't adapted either.
Plenty of blame to go around.
My burn to all down comment was only partially in jest.
We have a bunch of guys who have gone through some stuff.
Maybe they are burned out, Maybe they are done.
Let Oliver recruit, get his type of player in here, and see if he can teach them.
It will mean rebuilding and more lumps. Which I am sure will be fun since this board feels so entitled.
Sloan is on his 4th coach in college
LA 4th
Ty 3rd
Weber 3rd
Patterson 4th
Adheke 3rd
Maybe they are just over it.
(I think all these 1 year, He. needs to be fired now, no excuses. get rid of him or just stupid, short-sighted, over the top and reactionary so par for the course for those fan base.
Yeah four coaches in four years that will fix it.
Am I happy? No. Do I think lot of these responses are way over the top? Hell yeah.
My biggest fear is losing important pieces from this team.
Like I said I am afraid King might decide, hey this was a mistake, I am better than this and it the cupboard looks pretty bare next year.
I would hate to lose Yasser and Seymour, I see a lot of upside there.
Charles seems to be buried. Nunez hasn't shown me anything to get excited about.
At this point I kinda bleh about Weber he showed something but since the ankle he has reverted back to norm
and has lost minutes because of it.
From reports I would like to keep Strothers and Tipler.
