Some things I've noticed and I would liked to see changed...
- Royce needs to take the open jumper. I love how unselfish he is on offense. But he's got to realize the situations when another pass is just one too many.
- Quin needs to ride the hot hand more. Bogey was hot last game and didn't even attempt a shot in the 4th. Sometimes watching games this season it feels like DM/Bogey/Mike are taking turns on offense like "okay this your quarter, the next one will be mine, that one is yours" other times it feels like the ball is moving and guys are being TOO unselfish. A lot of this is just due to lack of continuity between the three. Haven't even played 20 games together yet. So it's not shocking that it's not yet a well oiled machine. So Quin needs to recognize the hot hand during games and say "Hey let's be sure to stay unselfish, but this guy is on fire okay guys"
Your whole post is pretty damn great, but I wanted to emphasize these two points of yours again. Royce cannot and must not hesitate to shoot, especially come playoff time when open shots could be at a premium.
The second point I agree with wholeheartedly as well, especially since it's Bojan we're talking about. If Royce has hit a bunch of shots in a row, you obviously don't give it to him to make the play, unless it's a catch and shoot open shot, but it's Bojan. He's our assassin and somebody you can give the ball to, to make a play in crunch time off the dribble. Not getting him a shot in the last quarter, and saying but yeah we ran plays for him that didn't eventuate, isn't acceptable.
