...some of the younger guys are starting to find their niches and are gaining confidence, 3pt shooting pct is rising, AB has figured out how to both score and facilitate despite defenses designed to focus on him, while BA isn't the facilitator that AB is he has found his stroke from 3 and is consistently finding ways to take good shots from 3 in the offense and coaches have figured out for the most part how all the parts to this year's puzzle fit together and they are quicker at figuring out who their go-to players are from game to game.

The fact that this year's team is so different in so many ways from last year's team and wins games in a very different manner than last year but is so very close in scoring offense and defense and in offensive and defensive efficiency compared to last year is an indicator of how good this coaching staff is collectively.
