Need to leave the inbounds duties to the guards/small forwards.
Let the players that are more in tune with passing the ball handle this. Also need to do a better job of running the baseline (when you can) to get better angles and passing lanes. Saw one play late in the game where the inbounder was going one direction and the player trying to get open going the opposite. The inbounder only needs to move when he sees someone breaking open to receive the pass.
I will not even mention the lack of screening to break someone free. I would be just be beating a dead horse. Things just are not done like they were when i played in the 70's.

Coaches apparently need to spend little more time in practice on inbounds .
