Watching tonight's game, the Wolves worked the pick and roll to perfection on us. It seems that everytime our defense got their offense in a rut, they have a go-to play that'd get them out a jam. I think our problem offensively is because we don't have a play that could get us out of a jam. Sure, the Rockets ran a couple of pick'n roll themselves, but it was not nearly as effective. I like how our defense look so far this year, but our offense is getting shut down because we don't have those isolation plays anymore (due to zone). I could be wrong about this, but just wondering what you guys think.
OMB, I agree with you but, as you mention, it's because hybrid zones are stifling our guards when they try to initiate offense. It's much tougher for them to break down defenses than before. Hope to see some offensive creativity from coaching staff as the league has the "book" on us that seems to be working. Also, we gotta develop some inside game either from Willis or Griffin...that would also create a lot more opportunity for guards and SF's.
