[QUOTE="79eer, post: 129257353, member: 1111787"] Sounds good on paper, but how does this team achieve Huggins goal of more scoring opportunities than their opponents by sitting back in a traditional defense. He saw that with this team's personnel they would struggle in a half court offense, which indeed they did. The press not only created more scoring opportunities through turnovers, but also created offense in and of itself. The traditional defense that you speak of would be fine if you have the personnel to run an efficient and productive half court offense, that was not the case with this years team, and unless we improve our ability to shoot the basketball at a higher percentage in the half court offense I suspect you will see it again next year.
