Not sure about the article’s interpretation. From the video, there won’t be the same number of 3 point attempts if run properly. Maybe 10-15 in most games.
A lot will have to be decided on what the defense is doing and how far out they play on us and how tight they are. The motion will give openings and depending on the defenses rim protectors, the midrange game will be important again.
The author also questioned our defense with all the defenders we got in the portal? I think our defense will be the reason for many wins and blowouts.
