Coach D’Antoni reply to what [she] is saying. She says the offense has taken precedence over, or 3-point-based offense has taken precedence over protection. What do you suppose? MIKE D’ANTONI: No, by no means takes precedence over protection. Protection, each coach is aware of it’s important to have protection to win, however all offenses are designed to assault the weakest a part of your protection. So a whole lot of groups, like we performed the Milwaukee Bucks they usually had a middle that hung across the rim. Or Rudy Gobert, who likes to remain again. And usually, so that you’re not, your offense goes to be designed to take a whole lot of 3s as a result of they’ve clogged up the center. They received’t allow you to get to the rim, which is all the time the primary precedence of any good offense, is to make layups. So it’s important to change up your philosophy or your level of assault. What I disagree with. I don’t suppose it’s made the sport unhealthy. It makes it thrilling. There’s a whole lot of, Steph Curry is Stephen Curry, yeah. Turns into a 3-point shot, that will be against the law to not have him within the league or no lead is secure, which is an effective factor. Or there’s no repeat champions within the final 5 or 10 years as a result of it opens the sport up and offers all people an opportunity to be that dominant workforce. -via WBUR / June 1, 2025
