The Pistons usually have three players at the three point line at all times, if not there, at least 15-17 feet from the basket.
I do agree our offense is different with Rip. I am really feeling bringing Rip or Tay off the bench, however, I know that will never happen. |
We spread the floor when Rip is not in but when he is in the game; we run a double screen at the high post or low block. Both Tay and Rip startin the lane. Zero driving lanes to the hoop. Now once Rip comes of the screens; Tay goes the other way. At that point either Dice or Sheed drops to the post on Rips side to screen or post up.
Once he gives it up to Rip; he never sees it again unless the shot clock is running out.
