isolation heavy player Anthony Edwards is an isolation heavy player as well and so you put the two of them together and you just see stagnancy all of the time I mean in the second quarter I think they had two points in the first five minutes of the quarter and most of the possessions that they had in the half court were either no pass or one pass possessions and it was over with and part of that is you know the way that Edwards and Randall like to probe and

And so they, I think they're getting close now. They're 26 games into the season to really having to ask themselves, do you make a real change in the starting lineup? Do you look at putting Nas Reed, who is a better shooter, even though he has really shot the ball poorly this season, he is a better shooter from the perimeter at the four.

And do you try to put Julius Randall in more of a featured role with the second unit, something like that, because he, Everything else that they have tried offensively has just not worked even remotely so far. And they have to find a way to get a rhythm and get a flow going.

Yeah, I mean, I do think one thing, one bit of perspective right now for them is that that you'll hear them say is, hey, tonight was terrible. There's no doubt about it. But we had just won six of seven.

I don't think that they feel internally that the sky is falling right now, but they definitely have to have their eyes open to the idea of changes, either internally with rotations and starting lineups or possibly looking at some trades.
