I think I know DF's Plan 

Post#1 » by myrak433 » Sun Sep 9, 2012 9:38 am

I believe Danny Ferry plans on putting nothing but shooters on the floor with Smoove and Horford playing a high low game. Horford High( Mid-High) and Smoove Low. Morrow, Jenkins, Korver, Lou, Harris, and even Mike Scott (he is a shooter as well) with all these shooters on the team there is no reason for Smoove to be out at the three point line. Even SeShawn Stevenson has a nice shot.

Pretty much. Josh himself was even asking for shooters a year ago and now he has them but I'll add that the floor is going to be wide open for Teague and Harris to penetrate also. The fact that Harris and Louis are excellent in the pick and roll and Jeffrey is also a great scorer out of that set demonstrates that that will be another big aspect to the offense.

Yea, if our shooters don't go cold and we play some defense we might turn a few heads

This definitely fits the San Antonio way of thinking. The thing they still have that we do not is a consistent post scorer and wing players who regularly finish plays at the rim. Teague can penetrate, but is hit-or-miss on finishing in the lane.

Louis Williams should have a field day penetrating and getting to the free throw line, though.
