[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 849569, member: 2299"] I disagree with doing nothing creative. IMO our set was designed to try and exploit their tendency to run their starters big minutes but we haven't had success in forcing turnovers and have gotten more out of position. So instead of pushing the pace, we ran our sets designed to make them work defensively for much of the shot clock to try and wear them down that way. And with the way Whisky was defending, doing what we did also allowed us to someone keep down the TOs that have been more of an issue for us. Whisky was playing tight for most of their defense but more or less allowing Roddy in the high post to just sit and wait. I think the end result was they did get tired legs, especially Davis which helped prevent him from doing more on the offensive end, but it also allowed Devoe to get good opportunities going to the rim. So while it wasn't super flashy in creating dunks or wide open shots, I thought it was effective in exploiting a tendency of the other team. Ultimately we scored 66 against a team averaging giving up 55 who is also a top 25 defensive efficiency team, and we were still able to generate 20 looks (more including the trips to the line) for our best player when everyone in the building knows we want to get him looks. And many of those were very good opportunities. All that with us getting very little from our second best player and generating very little in transition. [/QUOTE]
