Some people think its unfair to get so down on Billy G after just 2 seasons. But what is really KEY here is that he didn’t know how to coach the obvious talent he had. The blocked shot so popular this year was a killer and he never changed up his strategies. Almost like he was asleep or afraid to change the “script” during our games.
