LOL, from a look inside bandwagoner who has never been past Espana V even though you joined in season 4. Please enlighten us with how you would have played it?
End of the day it comes down to training & reverse training at that. If his Gurads could shoot on the inside & inside guys could make jumpers then Base Offense would have been the way to go. Base Offense is as sound a tactic as any other. The idea was also good as he played Outside focused offense all the way through & switched while they went 3-2 zone. So again the idea worked.
The real issue, for me, was he had players that picked up Fouls on the Inside very quickly & that took them out of the game for extended periods of time.
Right is not a popularity contest!
