We look like a team playing pickup ball because that is what we are.

None of our players have played together before, none of our players have experience with the system and nearly all of them are playing out of their ideal position

This is an excuse used often by bad teams. In college basketball 1 kid can come in and change the outlook of a team. Freshman classes can take a bad team to a tournament team. It happens every year. As far as "system" goes you can install a new offense in a 1 week in basketball.

Our problem is we just aren't very good team wise.

If you look at what makes a good basketball team we don't check any of the boxes

Rebounding - nope
Defense - nope
Inside Game - nope

If you're going to suck at one or at 3 of those things then you better be great in other areas. We aren't great at anything. We were good at shooting the 3 until the last few games.

Just a bad team all around. Hard to watch at time the level of dysfunction out there
