Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 4038163, member: 7511"] This young US team has yet to master the pick & roll and all the many options off of it, which is the mainstay of 3x3 basketball. The US Women’s Olympic 3x3 team wore other teams out running the pick & roll. Of course it certainly helps when Steph is setting the picks. With only 12 seconds to get up a shot, and without an effective pick & roll offense, for the most part, the US is going to try to take teams off the dribble and crash the boards. That’s pretty much what they successfully did in the first 3 games. Against Russia, they came up short. At this point, I don’t expect the US to dramatically change their game plan. They just have to execute better. [/QUOTE]
