Seriously, this is a tough team to lead.
As promising as Tatum, Brown, Rozier, Ojeleye, Yabu and Williams are, they are not consistently reliable on the court, which is really common for guys on rookie contracts.
Obviously Hayward is struggling. And with Horford's age, his consistency is declining as well.
Theis is somewhat matchup-dependent and Baynes has been injured quite a bit.
Morris and Smart have been the two most reliable players on this team other than Irving.
Playing with a team like that would be frustrating, with players constantly teasing their ability, but just when you lean on them, they prove unreliable.
Irving hasn't ever dissed the talent. He genuinely believes in the young talent on the team. In fact, even in frustrating moments, he has tried to breath confidence into those young guys, because he knows the Cs need them to win a championship, and believes in their ability and game.
People aren't perfect. Maybe Irving should have been more quiet. I don't mind it, and I don't think it is causing any problems in the locker room. I think the frustration is the inconsistent play as a team on the court, not the comments off the court.
