Two other comments I'd make
1) Rose doesn't prefer to have one dominant scorer. He wants a balanced attack. Jimmer was his first 20 ppg scorer as a junior, and then had a run of 5 straight years with Jimmer/Haws having a high usage rate. He rolled with what worked on those teams, but wants the team to be balanced and be inside/out. And while yes we have had a dominant scorer, look at the stats each year and there are 3-5 guys in double figures.

2) Rose talks to the media about nearly everything you mentioned, and is clearly frustrated with this year's team. They are not executing game plans or playing the way they are coached. I don't disagree that all those areas need improvement, I just think it's silly to suggest they aren't being coached that way.

It's more of a personnel issue right now IMO. Which yes I understand also reflects on the coaches, but I see it as this group for whatever reason is just not coming together and playing how they are coached.

Said differently, they watch film every day in practice. What do you think they are pointing out? It's all the stuff you mentioned above.
