Okafor kills it early, then the double and triple teams start. However, it's obvious he's been working hard on his intermediate shot, and he's a natural shooter who should get better with more reps, his progress over half a season is excellent.
Biggest problem is having guys to dish it back out to, though RoCo finally looks healthy the last few games (shooters start on the legs, he finally has some explosion).
It's not just Ish's play, it's working through the roster and pushing guys back on the depth chart, Wroten gone, Marshall, Landry at the back of the bench, Canaan limited to a backup SG role, McConnell matched up against backup PGs who lack elite quickness.
Stauskas is still inconsistent as a shooter, but BB has him hustling and playing defense, which is a plus over Canaan, a defensive liability, and Thompson, who is too slow for SG.
Grant plays defense, Sampson tries but is headed back to the bench when Grant returns.
You can see where this team could make a quantum jump if they added an elite wing player.
