    Uh oh. He is going to run ISO offense.

    "We've got the best pick-and-roll player in the game in Chris Paul. He's going to get guys shots. So why would I take that away from him?" Williams says. "David West might be one of the best pick-and-pop power forwards in the game. So we're going to use that until they stop it."

    The thread title is misleading! Monty has no hair to slick back!

    That's not the point. The point is that he can rub grease on his head just like Pat.

    How is a pick and roll offense an ISO offense? It's almost the opposite of one. ISO = Get the hell out of my way. P&R = Come to me and set a screen

    Because that's exactly what the Blazers do. They isolate Roy and bring LMA to set a pick and pop. Exactly what Monty wants to do with CP3 and West.

    That is not always true. Portland runs a 4 down set multiple times throughout each game.

    Pryz sets the picks too, and with his bionic legs he will be able to get back to the rim for the rebound and put back in half a secound!
