We need to hire a defensive minded coach in order to get somewhere.

It's sad because I really like EJ. I like his even demeanor, he doesn't whine, he doesn't make excuses, he tells it like he is. He's a good antidote for Gilbert's wacky behavior.
But you know, nobody likes Scott Skiles. So frickin what? This isn't a popularity contest, you want to win or not? Maybe EJ can hire an assistant who can teach defense. I wish we should hire Bob Huggins.
When I watch the Wiz play defense, they always look surprised at where the ball went. They react instead of aggressively forcing their defensive style on the opponent. Kinda like the Redskins before the hired Marvin Lewis for their defense. And you know what? The skins defense improved. I bet the Zards defense could be improved too. Million dollar question is can EJ teach defense. I don't know that he believes he can teach defense.
Ok, </ramble> Ramble mode off.
