Episode notes
Why Isolation Failed The Clippers
- The Clippers relied too much on isolation offense, which fails when shots aren't falling.
- Playing faster, forcing ball reversals, and attacking in transition would have created better scoring opportunities.
Attack In Transition And Reverse The Ball
- Play quicker and push in transition after rebounds to prevent set defenses from packing the paint.
- Reverse the ball to the second side to create attackable gaps instead of forcing hero isolation.
Adjust Aggression To The Defense
- When opponents pack the paint, bait the defense and free up teammates instead of forcing contested shots.
- Adjust aggressiveness mid‑game; being more aggressive isn't always the right response to a cold shooting night.
