Looking at Bear Insider and it looks like Volnation the past few years. They did say the "hillbillies warned us." I take offense to that.
From Bear Insider:
Martin's "attacking" style Before the season, Coach described his philosophy as an attacking style on both offense and defense. I did not see that at all last night. Our offense did not play with any urgency, we passed the ball around the perimeter without any purpose (a.k.a. the Ben Braun method), and there were very few instances of attacking the rim. Our defense allowed them to settle in the post with their big guy, or let their PG penetrate and kick. And boxing out on both ends has been atrocious.
So where did the attacking style go? Out the door when Bird got injured? Or has Coach opted for a different strategy?
Response:
During the season, Coach once described his philosophy as playing hard and being aggressive on defense and rebounding and the offense would follow, or would take care of itself, as I remember. Well, it hasnt and it wont.
