1. You are absolutely correct. I was thinking college.
The standing in the lane on D used however so it still was very difficult on offense.
Isolations, 2 man game not nearly as effective.
My bad.
2. YOu just made my point. Breakthrough.
There does not need to be any breakthrough if the best players are
playing. Clearly all the talent was not being tapped.
