I agree. It's crazy how opposite the offense is from last year. Last year was dominated by elite guards plus Hunter. Shooting out the wazoo. Fantastic offense, despite the slow pace.
This year, the guards are all terrible except for Clark. And while he's already good, he has a definite ceiling because of his size. It's amazing how badly the team has shot from deep so far.
The bigs are really good this season and can even shoot from outside.
I do think the guards/young guys will get better as the season goes on. Woldetensae shot nearly 50% from three last year. Stattmann was recruited as a shooter. Both have good size for the 2-3 positions, too. Morsell is an athletic stud who showed he could light it up in high school. Everything is just moving too fast for them right now. They seem to rush shots; they don't look comfortable out there. As they get used to playing, they'll improve. Might not happen until next season, though.
But yeah, right now, the offense is hot garbage. They just need to feed the bigs and hope they can carry the team for now.
