Sometimes, if not often,  they seem to take what the defense [B]gives them[/B].  After watching the Hoopvision68  video a few times I am convinced that they also force the defense to make mistakes and thus "[B]give them[/B]" what they are looking for:  an opening for a clean or even easy shot.  Someone pointed out that they are playing 3 point guards,  a point forward and a big who is a great passer.  If Alex gets
hot shooting its lights out.  But the last game they got an inordinate amount of points in the paint.  I think getting early points in the paint
is key for them.  When they do the defense sags and that opens 3 point land.  Even if Alex is not scoring he is such a threat with all his other skills that someone(s)  will start shaking loose.  Their balance and unselfishness and the sophistication of the offense make everyone or anyone a threat.  Very much a team effort.  It reminds me of the phrase "it seemed like they had 6 guys on the floor instead of 5."
