Interesting how some of things from last season is rearing it's head into this season despite new players and a new coach. Makes you wonder....

I was going to make the same point. Noah's defense has looked all that good either.

This is starting to mirror the last 3 seasons, same "DEER IN Head Lights" confusing look, same unlimited jump shots, next to no PnR, 12 man rotation, so you can never build chemistry, grapsing for straws with a bench, of unknowns..

I could only imagine the back lash phil will receive if this roster doesn't make the playoffs.. his cred will completely shot

I mean he's play on a team that was the top defense team in the league, I 'm prrety sure he had something to do with that

I see in the Post today Courtney Lee is saying they only defend against the triangle in practice. Of the rest of the league is playing pick and pop I agree with Lee that should defend against it in practice.

Hornacek is trying so hard to get the triangle down that they're cannibalizing the defense. They should be making time to defend against what teams are actually playing, I agree.

This can be an issue because Hornacek lost him job in Phoenix because the players lost confidence in him...Too many players are talking up way too soon..
