Message: [QUOTE="husky429, post: 2496776, member: 6696"] I can't imagine ollie cant draw that kind of set. I can draw an effective set of plays for these guys, and I don't get paid anywhere near 3,000,000 a year to coach. Try 1/100th of that, lol. You could see early in the game some wheel action, baseline screens for larrier, to set up PnR. I think the problem is respect and buy-in from the players. Theyre not FINISHING the sets and resorting to hero ball. This has been alluded tp by Jalen, Larrier, even Akinjo in interviews. Also, personnel management. We dont have the bigs who can set the necessary screens, or the shooters to space the floor and make this work. Regardless of injuries, transfer, etc. Player management is on the coaching staff. I love Diarra and Whaley, but their abilities dont suit this offense. Same with williams. Personally, I like vital as a 6th man. I'm sold that Carlton could get there. Polley is a tough read still. Our focus needed to be on 3* players who can finish a PnR with effiency if we wanted an offense like this. Or Design an offense that allows for scrappier, tougher play from the bigs. Add some flex cuts, Ucla cuts, run an out of bounds play that.actually attempts to score--but that would take Jalen out of his game. He is elite on the PnR driving to the hoop. [/QUOTE]
