white men can't jump wrote: View PostNope. Mostly same offence, different minute allocation to get Pierce more time at PF for more shooters....you know why? Because it was painfully obvious we couldn't stop the playbook they used all year. Why wouldn't you get more shooters when we can't defend for crap? Not to mention Nene was a non-factor for most of the series, and their bench bigs suck. But still, it was primarily Wall making plays and guys being open for shots. Having PP spotting up at the 3 instead of Nene spotting up at 15+ feet is not exactly a difference of night and day. It's not like Whittman made some brilliant tactical adjustment that totally changed the way they played.

This team played almost an entirely different offense throughout this series than they did in the regular season.

Well, we now know how that turned out.
And...it was actually the Wizards and Wittman who pulled off that move and confounded his critics here who derided him as a bozo. Another learning experience.
