Nearly all offense sets use cuts of some sort. Even Knight's motion offense will take them if they are there.<BR/><BR/>The key is the back cut, which G'town rarely employs. Further, Carrill's offense didn't often bring the ball back out past the free throw line extended once it was inside the line. G'town will use the more traditional kick out when defenses sag or there's no play in the paint.Jason Haashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14581224941149292415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13368104.post-53806678693777338302007-04-01T14:16:00.000-04:002007-04-01T14:16:00.000-04:00c'mon redhorse its called the princeton offense be...c'mon redhorse its called the princeton offense because longtime Princeton BBall coach Pete Carril came up with it and its emphasis on sharp cuts.

One whale went for the teddy bear and one went for the gator. Then the clip ended. Why? Because CNN was too lazy to find a stuffed buckeye or Hoya. The tragedy of having such unique mascots.<BR/><BR/>Hoya Saxa baby! :)<BR/><BR/>Have I mentioned that I have to be at a wedding by 8:15pm about 5 mins from my house?Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02175591212176951287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13368104.post-90377556386437481372007-03-31T03:40:00.000-04:002007-03-31T03:40:00.000-04:00Pho, Hibbert and Oden cancel each other out.

He will switch up, but look for zone most of the time. This keeps Oden out of foul trouble and negates the size advantage of Green.<BR/><BR/>In the end, I believe OSU's depth and quickness will win out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
