[QUOTE="GameOfThrows, post: 1265987, member: 566478"] Either we have a team full of guards and wings that don't know how to move without the ball or Groce doesn't know how to coach wings and guards how to move without the ball. Groce's "system" is a high-post screen for the point guard while two guys stand on the wing and one guy roams around the baseline somewhere. That's it. He doesn't teach the guys how to play basketball properly. He doesn't teach defense properly either. (Or, we have a roster full of guys who don't know how to play defense) Groce isn't doing himself any favors though. Tracy needs to sit. He's a detriment to the team and decreases our chances of winning a game. I'd rather have Alex Austin play the 2, at least he can play some D. Tate, Thorne and Tracy are toast. They don't need to play for more than a combined 15 minutes/game at this point. We have learned that we cannot win with the veterans. Time to play the young guys and see if they can turn this thing around. NOW. [/QUOTE]
