I will say, the more this team plays, the more they take on the demeanor of their head coach during game play. Measured. Calm. Patient. They’ll get down double digits and keep playing like they have sense, and not panicking. WUJ gets slammed on here so much, but nobody seems to credit WUJ with this.
There seems to be longer stretches where the team seems settled and out there trying to execute the game plan regardless of the score, and they just feel more confident about themselves regardless.
I’ll also say, Kuz coaching guys up is fantastic and he also doesn’t get enough credit from folks for what he does for this team in a leadership role. He pulls guys aside all the time and is pointing and giving tips and advice and it’s just great to see. Especially after some positive play and immediately he’s talking to them about how to get better (cause you can always get better). Guy has a chip (championship) and it shows. So he’s responsible for some of this too. Who knows what happens next game or next week, but they definitely seem to be developing that part of an identity.

There’s the wiz with Beal and the wiz without.
