Message: [QUOTE="yungdowork, post: 3385321, member: 10371"] I disagree with this point. A ton of offenses in the NBA are based around spacing and having their best players run iso. Look at what Harden does night in and night out in Houston. The problem we have is that we don’t have the ball handlers or the shooters for it to work. The only shooter that teams really respect is Polley, and even he doesn’t do his best work in catch and shoot situations. The lack of shooters affects our spacing negatively since opponents are able to help on defense with less apprehension. Then in order to actually drive to the bucket, our guards end up having to beat 2 or 3 defenders. In my opinion, running a smaller lineup with more guys who are comfortable putting the ball on the floor would allow for more fluidity in the offense. As it stands 3 of 5 starters really can’t handle the ball at all and the two guards who can are turnover prone and try to dribble into traffic too often. [/QUOTE]
