Coach Hews coaching.

Too much guard play on the point. The forwards need to be allowed to play point in certain situations particularly on the side wings just above the baseline toward the sideline near the paint. They just crash or go to the hoop in blind fashion without any reads. That is due to Mr. Hewitt's lack of confidence in their skills and their art. Likewise, the players lack confidence to make reads and passes on the run in a half-court set. In Hewitt's team, the forwards are always climbing Mt. Everest when it comes to making decisions.

However, Tech plays hard and will make a run when things look bleak and when everybody's tired. Guard play becomes important toward the end of the season and the tournament. Likewise, the length of the forwards and the hustle will make the difference for a run. But I would like to see Coach emphazize the forwards to make some reads instead of retreating to the guards to make all the reads. That way, all 5guys will have to defend 5 guys instead of just 2.

If you don't know what I'm talking about take a look at Rick Barry from 1975 with Golden State or John Johnson from 1979 Seattle Sonics.
