I was living in Detroit while they made a four-year killing off that high pick and roll. Conference finals, then three staight NBA finals, 2 rings. Every 4th quarter, you knew what the last 4 minutes would bring, but could you stop it? For most teams in that period, the answer was no.
And many teams now might want to pull out that old game film cause 3/4s of all NBA teams can't execute consistently down the stretch, which is one of the keys to winning at that level. Watch a lower level team play for three consecutive nights and try to figure out what they think they are doing. With a good team, watch them twice and you know it.
