And .now I know why basketball was so much better then than now.
It is not that players were better...but each of those teams had multiple players who had been in their programs for 3 and 4 years. No one and dones.
So much more strategy in those games.
In 83...no clock. The strategy involved throughout made the game so much better. Different styles...teams did not all look mostly the same. No clock allowed NC State to play in a way that gave them a chance. Otherwise...Houston's athleticism would have just been overwhelming.
IN the Duke v. Ky game it was players making great play after great play...but again...a lot of strategy. It was the last year of the 45 second shot clock...which is about what it should be in today's game.
Again...allows for so much more strategy....and different styles of play.
Now we just run down the floor...look for quick offense and if we can't get something quick,....fire up a bad 3 point shot.
Those teams were moving, cutting, running backdoor cuts...working the high low game.......probing the defense and playing really efficient.
Just a cleaner game.
We really need to get rid of one and done and also need to get the clock back to 40 or 45 seconds.
