To Ball Screen or To Pass

[fifteenth]

Very interesting, @"fifteenth". The last time I remember seeing an NBA team run anything like this was Miami in the bubble, and it wasn't exactly this...but it was a motion based, hold the ball and watch the motion play out type of approach. Ultimately, the Lakers made it look pretty foolish. 

I don't like like the chances of this working in the NBA. I'd like to go back to the "spreading the floor, setting a screen and allowing a playmaker to probe the defense" style that was described as " the way of life in college basketball" (and the NBA too, of course).

I agree. I just responded to @"dirkfansince1998" in that other thread. Even though I love the idea of creating offense off of passing, I don't think being this pass heavy fits Luka or the rest of our roster. However, I do think we need some sort of middle ground between that allows the Luka centric, spread pnr to thrive and not get stagnant.
