I believe....
1. That Malone has been our best coach since Adelman. (Not very hard to do)
2. Malone is only on his second year, so will have some learning to do.
3. Is more effective of the defensive side rather than offensive x and o's
4. Has our team playing well, when healthy.
On the other hand. ...
1. He can certainly have some improved rotations, like not having the twin duplex rotations.
2. Have some sense in his rotations (like dwill having a few good games then barely plays the next) this may be hard on some players
3. He must see that our back up PG sucks and at least should play the other back up who at least is an upgrade defensively and in turnovers.
I do think that there is some truth to the OP but perhaps not as grave as it sounds.
If anything, our fragile momentum and culture change shows how much we need cuz, I hope things revert back to more trust and less is every man for himself team we've seen in the last few games.
Is Corbin a better coach???
Can Corbin be the offensive coordinator, and Malone the defensive coach?
At least, these last few games I hope could be a learning experience in how to play when cuz is out with fouls or resting. ....which may serve us well later in the season.
Go kings!
