Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 4253210, member: 1414"] Sort of true, but Hurley admitted mid season he over scripts things, especially the start of each half. You can see it in how they play at times. When somebody spends 12 seconds trying to hand the ball to Cole, that's over-scripted. You don't see Nova doing that. We did the same thing over and over trying to feed Sanogo when he's doubled. If he is doubled, somebody is open. Now Hurley's job is to make sure that everybody who isn't Sango is in a position on the floor where they can score, but they weren't, which allowed the doubles. He can say "not enough shooters" because he played 4 out. But you can solve that by not playing 4 out. Play however many out as you have shooters. If 2, then 2. If 3 then 3. There were moments when the offense looked great. Ball movement, off the ball movement, very free flowing. But too often they forced the play to particular guys. When we needed an outside shot we'd run Polley off 3 screens and because he's not very quick he still didn't get open looks from that. But they never took advantage of the chasing to get it to somebody else. Often they ignored wide open guys who were not the guy designated to take the shot. It was bizarre how [B]restricted[/B] the offense felt at times. It made them so easy to defend. [/QUOTE]
