Heck all I keep reading is my team cheats and I'm not getting bent out of shape. I am interested in if the Whitley fans think they are better than pre injury whitley from last year. I like jones as coach but I think the team misses powers. Just was wondering what gut and wizzard thinks?
I know that you asked Gut and Wizzard but I will chip in with my two cents worth.....
Whitley 2012/13---Good offensively with good guard play, could score from several different positions but looked to Smith when they needed a big bucket. Defensively they pressed a lot but did not control the game with the press, got a few turnovers out it but at times were slow to recover and gave up easy baskets against some teams. Powers turned out to be be a huge key for the team both offensively and defensively, but more on the defensive side of the court. Team Rating 8.2 (on a scale of 10)
Whitley 2013/14---So far, so good. Yes they had two losses early on to Southwestern and Bell, but they were still learning the expectations of what they system required of each player. As they have progressed they have gotten better and better. The press is different. It is more active and they look to control the tempo of the game with it (at times). The guard play is solid and they can score from the inside or outside, and they are not limited to using one player in "need a bucket" situations. Defensively in the half court they still don't move their feet and still commit some silly fouls but that is getting better too. As the younger players continue to develop they will be deeper and more able to press for longer periods. Team rating 8.6 (on less than a half of a season) with a steep curve for improvement. Could improve to 8.9-9.3
