[QUOTE="YlJacket, post: 947607, member: 2784"] I feel a bit sheepish after Boston's effort against Miami last night. But it did point out one issue that I think may carry over to CDS's efforts at GT. Boston's offense - even last night - is really good at spacing the floor and working to keep the lane open. And when Tatum and Brown are "on" it is a wonderful thing to watch. But last night there were only sort of "on" and Miami was doing a really good job on defense - and you saw a lot of possessions where Tatum or Brown got the ball 15/18 feet from the basket in an isolation situation and had to make one on one plays with help coming. IOW the offense wasn't doing much to help them - it was iso playing. To say the least GT does not have a Tatum or Brown - even if you look relative to the talent we will be playing against. One of the things I will be watching for is how CDS puts the wrinkles into his version of the 5 out / 4 out sets in order to help Kelly or whomever get an advantageous matchup or get the ball in position to do something (shot/drive/whatever) and not just depend on spacing and winning one on one battles. Can he bring a bit of Denver or GS to the sets to help players who are not nearly as skilled as Tatum and Brown? That is part of the transition from the pro game and the Boston sets that I am going to be curious to see. [/QUOTE]
