Stop the easy layups, penetration and dunks would be a good start.

“we’ve got guys that can really shoot it” ……. all the respect and admiration for Coach Huggins, but fell I for that too many times in the past. Big difference between ”really shooting it“ in practice, vs. when the lights go on in front of 10,000 in the seats ……. big difference. Should find out shortly.

I can tell you I have no idea if there are any masterful scorers on this team but they will not allow sissy shots all game long as before.

Again reading the tea leaves...

"It’s not like some years where your guys that play are so much better than the guys that don’t play. We have guys where they’re really going to have to compete to play. We’re not going to have to play guys longer than they’re capable of playing well,” Huggins said.

Translation...we can run out mass substitutions without a massive drop in talent. If you can't press then you sit.
