really good pick up for the clippersOriginally Posted by franchise3
Rasoul Butler to the Clips for a 2nd rd pick. Hornets save about 4M
I'll give you the structural differences, Nellie's guys do infact go to isolations or high screen/rolls, whereas D'Antoni insists moreon constant ball and player movement. However that doesn't make or PROVE one to be better than another or any less of a gimmick.Originally Posted by Al3xis
It's not worth discussing cause yall are just lookin at it on the surface.
ie do jt3 and tony bennett run the same stuff just cause they slow things down? NO.
the most blatant part of it is d'antoni's offense is predicated on ball movement while Nelson right now runs iso's all game long.
The #1 factor for d'antoni is the ball can never stop moving and it must result in a good shot.
now how many times have we seen a gsw player force up a bad shot, the floor is never spaced well and it's often cleared out to one side. that does not happen with d'antoni.
A player like Ai will find more success under nelson, a player like steve nash will be better suited under d'antoni.
Nelson's guys just run and get by on being athletes and use that to their advantage right now....d'antoni's system at it's foundation is the pick and roll with a spread floor.
.and d'antoni has been opposed to playing bigs, since?
but hey, the princeton offense utilizes the 3 ball a ton, too. they gota be the same.

Hey, fair enough assessment, we aren't all dummies here, so I can see where you're comin from on this, but while the intricacies are different, thebottom line is the movement to score as fast as possible, run and gun style.
I wouldn't say gimmick as in wildcat or trick plays, I say gimmick in a sense that 26 other teams play one way, 2-4 play the other, is sort of"gimmicky" for lack of a better word.
Bottom line, he was one rebound away from being knocked out in the first round as a 2 seed. His team fell all over itself after Horry hipchecked hisgirlfiend. They had to go 7 full games to beat Mike Dunleavy's Clippers, Dirk pissed all over his franchise in the series against Dallas, add it all upand he has zero to show for his career thus far. That says "great coach" to you? All he has, and all Suns fans have is excuses and reasons for whythey never got it done. At the end of the day, put what you got on the table, save the excuses. 20 years from now when he's still a high scoring coachwith no victories other then regular season, you gonna tell me this same nonsense?
Powe-ned. (v) To completely control and annihilate one's NBA competition. usage: Danny Ferry just Powe-ned the Celtics.
You need a foundation in place. You just can't throw guys together and say PLAY.

i never said defense was not needed. but you don't need to slow things down and grind out baskets to win.
you're right though, winning a title does center on LeBron coming or not.
you give him lebron and he can fill in role players around him to result in an average to decent defensive team (like the suns were) it's definitely possible.
basketball has changed since the 90's....ever big guy except dwight now is basically a face up player, more running...more spaced floors. the magic this year were 1 in 4 out all the time themselves.
My whole point is, i do not see what is wrong with the approach offensively when it comes to winning.
