We have had huge chemistry issues, and the one thing that was the earmark of the repeat team - their unselfishness - is the thorn in the side the last two years. The guys who won it all were not as heralded as the guys we have had the last two years when we first signed them, but they new guys think that they are owed something. You can tell that Billy is not as fond of them as a group.
Team chemisty is the one thing that is hard to create. Just one or two guys can crater it. All you can do is hope to play the guys who are coachable, and hope that they improve. It was hard to lose all five guys, but the hard part has not been replacing the talent, it has been hard to find five guys to buy into what Billy is saying.
Therein lies the problem.
