Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 5175153, member: 1414"] I don't think he's going backward to an ISO offense. I think the takeaway for him will be different if they aren't going to change how they call things. My general thoughts. 1. Screeners need to be intimidating enough to wreck people. Like Clingan and Adama were. Reed could be. But we also screen with other than centers, which leads to #2. 2. Our off ball guys will need to skew towards the physical. Castle, not Ross. Solo should be that but somehow isn't. Cam was strong as hell. Newton was strong. I'm talking dudes who can rip themselves away from the grabs and clutches decisively. Mahaney doesn't have it. Ball doesn't have it. Alex turns it off and on. Liam has it. 3. Teach guys to force the calls or get free. Newton was instinctively good at it. If a guy is grabbing you, spin move, reverse back into him, make it obvious that you're being impeded. There are some football similarities here. Techniques to shed blockers. [/QUOTE]
