Someone on Scoop made a great post about these players having raw athleticism but not necessarily being well-coached from early on. Burton is a great example of someone who has generally been able to just dominate physically, but hasn't necessarily ever had great coaching (leaving Brewster may have been a mistake in that regard). It isn't just that these kids are learning a new system, they also have to learn how to learn, how to receive real coaching.
One thing with Buzz, he didn't really seem to have a lot of set plays on offense. When you had guys willing to take their shot, that worked fine. But when guys weren't as self-motivated, like last year when players like Jamil, Derrick, and Jake logged major minutes but were all willing to defer to someone else, things just kind of broke down. In the past, that was okay because the focus always seemed to be coaching defense while letting the offensive players play. With Wojo coming from a more structured style, he has to build these guys from the ground up. He needs to teach an offense, a defense, while at the same time teaching them how to be receptive to teaching itself. This could be a long process, but I think it will really help as we see him bring in his own guys.
