[QUOTE="Tommy_Taylor_1972, post: 998478, member: 6776"] I guess I am still a student of today's basketball trying to figure out this "style" of offense called " Pro Style" that I was not familiar with. I admit I played 50 years ago and modeled my jump shot from watching Jerry West on black and white TV. And I coached 40 years ago modeling my coaching after Whack Hyder and Dean Smith. So I googled, searching to learn about these new styles of offense. The first site I read was at [URL]https://synergysports.com/six-styles-of-team-offense-in-mens-college-basketball/[/URL] . This site went into detail about the basic movements in basketball described in one of six different team styles, describing the 5 different movements within each style. I believe it was written last year when there were 358 college Division 1 teams, now there are 363. GT is ranked 134, from 125 before last night, Wake moved from 42 to 32. When players are under stress and over matched, they tend to resort to what they are most familiar with. We definitely were over matched last night. The picture here is quite telling on styles, especially the pro style in the ACC. Last year, there were no teams doing the pro style offense.
