Not my question to answer, but I have a take.
A bad orange can sit a lot longer than a bad apple before getting noticed.

If McDermott is the bad apple here then his brown spots were easy to see.
Talented players not developing or just plain leaving which lead to or was caused by bad offense. For me, watching the Wesley Johnson story unfold was tough and really showed me how coach struggled.

So if Prohm is the bad orange then things have looked fine on the skin. We've been making the tournament very regularly up until this year. But now that we're getting in to teams that are "his" teams (cutting in to the fruit) we are seeing that is not enough there to sustain fans' hunger. With Haliburton assumed to be a lottery pick we are looking at a dry future unless Prohm gets an unusally high success rate on recruits and transfers like he had in the 18-19 season.

Anyways, let's get another win today!

I think you are straining the metaphor there.

Did the team drink michaels secret juice from space jam?

But it was just water -- that was the moral of the story.

They had it in them all along!
