Finding an identity
A new coach typically takes a little time to bring a new identity to a team. Some are able to do it quicker than others. Chris Beard did it quickly, but it should be noted that the basic philosophy already in place was similar to his (tough defense, take good shots); he just did it a lot better. I am not sure what Walker's philosophy is. It doesn't seem to be anchored in defense. In fact, looking at the stat sheet, it is difficult to tell what it is anchored in. We shoot reasonably from inside the arc (thank you, big guys). Our defense is no better than average. Our FT shooting is horrendous. Our rebounding is solid, but not spectacular. We have more turnovers than assists. There is just not much yet that we do particularly well. Hopefully we will get there, and it make take a year or two - but we do need to pick up the pace of progress a little.
