I hope you’re right. I hope Conley plays Friday and magically resolves our problems because everyone somehow knows what to do under command of our floor general.
Even if Mike is back, I’m afraid that won’t happen. The offense has become totally lazy and mostly dependent on bad shots; 3 pointers and others that stop going in, and leave us looking completely lost. Not sharing the ball. Standing around. Not knowing where we’re supposed to be. So easy to defend.
Then it’s like the lazy offense bleeds into us playing with no intensity defensively. Then when we finally try to pick that up, we look lost there too. Yes, we get some bad calls and no-calls, and then we get frustrated and mentally tired. Which makes everything worse.
It has spiraled us completely out of the style of play that got us to #1.
I hope Conley is the fix. I really do.
