[QUOTE="othawhitemeat, post: 1559692, member: 3776"] I think he will learn from it though. My one concern for Ayo is that he seems to be making it his team too much though. Underwood needs to get Ayo the ball more off of screens and creating from mid arc though instead of at top of key. As many others have said, let Curbelo initiate. However, this is only Curbelo's 4th game and you don't want to create friction with Trent. I would let Trent also initiate too some - let him split with Ayo. However, to me offensively, the biggest issue is we take to long to set up our offense. We need more off ball movement, more passing and quicker in trying to get Kofi the ball. Whether it is on coach, or Ayo, we need to get others touches quickly. I like Miller's confidence and off ball movement. One thing I will say that despite loss, I'm just glad to have a good team again with young talent to help when studs such as Ayo/Kofi move on. Hope we can find some more talent for upcoming classes. Also, nice to see Giorgi get some confidence and really like how Williams is playing. [/QUOTE]
