Flip's biggest flaw, imo, is he's too involved with his beloved playbook. He doesn't play guys to their strengths. What we have is a very versatile lineup with a second unit that was meant to bring a different set of skills to the table, making the team capable of playing any style on any given night. Flip just wants everyone to play like the starters.

And what happened to running more with the 2nd unit? Stuckey's biggest strengths - as well as Amir's, coincidentally, are best utilized in a faster offense. Max would thrive there too, I think.
