What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Mike Hopkins ? SEATTLE (AP) — In the view of  Mike Hopkins    his  first season as the head coach at Washington will be filled basically with freshmen.
That's not to be taken in the literal sense. What  Hopkins  means is that with a new coaching staff  a new style and new expectations  even the players that are returning from last year are just like the incoming freshmen.
"I think the biggest thing is we've focused on the day-to-day  how we're going to do the process of getting better "  Hopkins  said. "That's the standard of excellence every day and everybody here is learning a new system. A lot of the players end up being freshmen again because they're learning  from our zone to our press to how we're going to play offensively  defensively. I think they've made the transition pretty smooth."
 Hopkins  also had to recruit those who slogged through a 9-22 record a season ago to keep them around. A number considered leaving. Most  including starters David Crisp  Noah Dickerson and Matisse Thybulle  all ended up staying with the chance to create the new foundation for the next chapter at Washington.
"The biggest concern with a new coach is the buy-in there "  Hopkins  said. "I think from the beginning our staff did a great job of really connecting with the kids  working with them  developing them  getting them to stay  that was our first priority. I'm very happy with the guys."
IN THE ZONE: Yes  Washington will play zone. Yes  it will be the same zone defense that  Hopkins  helped teach at Syracuse.
Defense was a major problem in the waning years of Romar's tenure. The Huskies' defense was more of a liability that an asset. How  Hopkins  is able to implement the zone will be important since the Huskies don't have a lot of size on the interior. A year ago  Washington allowed 81 points per game  11th in the conference.
"I know the benefits of it. The biggest thing I want to do is control tempo. So if you're fast  I can slow you down; if you're slow  I can speed you up "  Hopkins  said.
FINDING SCORING: One of  Hopkins ' first tasks will be finding enough scoring. Crisp is Washington's leading returning scorer at 13.8 points per game  while Dickerson averaged 12.5 points last season. But the Huskies don't have an obvious scorer on the roster that can carry the load or get points in crucial situations. In recent seasons  the Huskies have had Markelle Fultz  Andrew Andrews and C.J. Wilcox. Fultz averaged 23.2 points last season  while Andrews scored 20.9 per game the season before.
DIFFICULT BEGINNING:  Hopkins  certainly isn't shying away from having a challenging schedule to begin  his  Washington tenure.

âGetting these players is going to be easy â  Ball  said. âThis is giving guys a chance to get a jump start on their career  to be seen by pro scouts  and weâre going to pay them because someone has to pay these kids.â
 Ball  also said the league will use NBA regulations but that all players will wear his Big Baller brand shoes and gear because his company is funding the league.
âWeâll give it to them all. Theyâll be wearing our uniform  our shoes  our T-shirts and our hoodies â  Ball  insisted.
 Ball  said  he  wants to assemble ten teams in cities such as Los Angeles  Dallas  Brooklyn  and Atlanta.
 Ball  recently made news with a feud with President Donald Trump over the assistance the president lent his son  LiAngelo  who was arrested for shoplifting by Chinese authorities when his college team was in that country in November. President Trump personally intervened with Chinaâs leadership to get LiAngelo and two other players released after the arrest  but the senior  Ball  refused to give Trump any credit for helping his son out of the jam.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Giancarlo Stanton ? But if Aaron Judge  Giancarlo Stanton and company don’t win a World Series as soon as possible  sports fans might start confusing the greater New York area with Winnipeg.
Why only 91-71  even after acquiring the reigning National League Most Valuable Player in  Stanton ? Because while you might not have loved Starlin Castro or Chase Headley — the Yankees didn’t  either — the two gentlemen provided some value. And because both  Stanton  and Judge  the reigning American League Rookie of the Year  are forecasted to tail off some.
 Stanton  and Judge nevertheless upgrade this team from a serious contender to must-see baseball. Barring an epic collapse  the Yankees will see their attendance rise in consecutive seasons for the first time in the new Yankee Stadium. If you attended the recent Baseball Writers Association of America New York chapter’s dinner in Manhattan  you saw Judge and Stanton interacting publicly for the first time as teammates. It’s an electric optic  one that figures to be more so when they’re in uniform.
“Help us  Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton. You’re our only hope.”
