is the lack of defensive intensity. Maybe that was wrong of me to assume it would get better, but I did. I see it in flashes - you'll see Phillips get mad and really go hard for a short stretch - if he played balls to the wall like that for as long as he could, caught a blow and did it again, we'd be much better. If everyone else played like that, we'd win some games.

Defensive mindsets are hard to nuture. Asking guys to do the dirty work and not the glory work and getting them to do it is tough. I think you either have to be a demanding a**hole (like Bob Knight and Coach K) or you have to be a guy who can really get his guys pumped and is a motivational coach. Kim doesn't appear to be either. Not sure his style will ever translate.

                    Mormad and Eggs are pretty fair posters, - nerdmachine KC - 1/4 14:46:18
                         Pretending the coach can do nothing to help his players - Mizzmi27 MU - 1/4 15:20:19
                              I've watched every game this year, - nerdmachine KC - 1/4 15:25:39
                                   agree, only 93% is bad coaching(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 1/4 15:29:37
                                        No, coaching is not as important as talent acquisition, - nerdmachine KC - 1/4 15:36:22

                                             And he's done the same thing with "promising" playing time. - Mizzmi27 MU - 1/4 15:33:38
                              Totally agree with the premise of this post - Mormad MU - 1/4 15:24:04
                                   Player performance ultimately lands back on the coach - Mizzmi27 MU - 1/4 15:26:47
                                        And here is also the fallacy - Mormad MU - 1/4 15:36:09

                                                  The thing I've been most disappointed in - Mormad MU - 1/4 15:46:14
                                                       I actually don't think our intensity has been that bad - TigerUppercut MU - 1/4 15:49:03

                                   It surely is... - Mormad MU - 1/4 15:03:32
                                        Playing Geist/TP together as a backcourt... - TigerUppercut MU - 1/4 15:43:01
                                             Agree...I'd rather see them each play hard for stretches - Mormad MU - 1/4 15:51:55
                                                  Not sure that changes much - TigerUppercut MU - 1/4 15:58:53
                                                       Yeah, I thought about KJ - Mormad MU - 1/4 16:02:24
                                                            I'd give KJ 20-25 minutes a game - TigerUppercut MU - 1/4 16:07:01
          That's crazy - Mormad MU - 1/4 14:28:18
               Yup, and lately teams are hitting 3's against us - Eggs MU - 1/4 14:41:38

                         I posted the analysis before the Illinois game - Eggs MU - 1/4 14:49:24
                              It's been this way since Kim took over. No has been able - sprintcar STL - 1/4 15:01:35
                                   There's an obvious answer to your first question, - nerdmachine KC - 1/4 15:06:48
                                        Last year we scored 71+ in 9 of the last 10 games - Eggs MU - 1/4 15:14:56
                                   That's kind of where I'm going, 98-86 is a loss - Eggs MU - 1/4 15:03:46
