[QUOTE="gte447f, post: 856249, member: 4289"] For those asking for changes to the offense, we have seen changes early on in the last few games. I wasn’t able to watch the USC game, but against LSU, Rodney was rolling to the low post after a curl handoff, and the guys got it back to him for several close shots at the basket. Unfortunately, Rodney didn’t convert enough of the looks he got (3-11). Last night against State, Rodney started the game below the block (almost on the baseline) which opened up the lane quite a bit. Devoe hit usher on a beautiful back door cut for a dunk. Devoe also hit Smith on a beautiful baseline cut, but Smith was challenged at the rim and couldn’t finish. We also found Rodney open behind the defense a couple of times. Unfortunately, he was set up so deep that he was behind the backboard and had trouble finishing from that awkward position. One of the times actually ended up as a turnover because his foot was on the baseline when he caught a dish from a slasher in the lane. The point is, Pastner is working on changing things up and adding some wrinkles other than the Princeton high post, point series stuff, and, in my opinion, the changes have worked for some high quality scoring opportunities, some of which have resulted in baskets. Unfortunately, some good looks have also been missed by guys not being able to convert. [/QUOTE]
