Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 1978978, member: 837"] I'm not sure what the differences are between the two players. I always thought Reddick was a guy who you had to make move his feet. If he was squared up you were dead, yet he was not terribly effective at finishing around the basket or creating for others and seemed at least a little less effective if he had to move his feet before launching his jumper. So, all of that said, to me the biggest difference is that, love him or hate him, Coach K is brilliant at devising ways to get his shooters open looks. I honestly think if you look at the talent on that team from the end of the Brand/Carrawell/Battier era teams in the late 90's early 00's up until maybe 13 or 14 when they started pulling in absurd amounts of talent again, that Duke had good but not great talent. Yet they still won a ton of games. To me that's because K does a phenomenal job of getting players who are willing to move without the ball open looks. [/QUOTE]
