I don't blame teams for optimization. I will say, basketball always seemed cooler because of all the individual playstyles and the unique types of scorers there were. There does come a point where I personally find it a little bland that everyone runs the same stuff and takes the same shots

Everyone has always ran the same stuff though minus like a handful of teams.

I will say that hearing older coaches talk that there wasn't as much variation in play calling like people believe it was in the past.

However, the offensive focus was more diverse due to different skillsets being valued at different times in history.

My initial thought is under on all

I know he's a great prospect but nearly a 20 point double double with over 2.5 blocks is a crazy statline for any player, let alone a rookie. The opportunity will be there, though.

Easy 3hr drive down i35 i make it all the time. In fact, Perry Jones used to drive home to Duncanville after practices, games, whenever he had a window because his family was sick.
