Message: [QUOTE="STEVEHOLT, post: 1699982, member: 522"] Just wondering if you guys think there is any merit to this at all. I fully realize we have a HOF coach and all that, but nobody can deny our offense goes stagnant at times. One thing I believe we should do more of is isolation sets for MG. We do so much pick and roll, and one of the consequences of that is the screener bringing his defender to the ball handler. This basically crowds the area and makes it that much more difficult to drive to the basket. It was quite frustrating to watch early in the Dayton game as basically we kept running pick and roll for 30 seconds, getting nowhere, and then taking bad shots. I believe we might be well served to give Mike a bit more opportunity for clear outs / isos without screens, keeping the driving lane a little less crowded. It seems the only time we run iso's now is when plays break down or we are in desperation "late and behind" mode. [/QUOTE]
