motion offense without any real threat in the post. Ball screens, back-door cuts, lots of motion - it was a thing of beauty. Duke runs something similar today (see the Duke motion offense on the link below). Your players have to be well conditioned and fairly intelligent to be able to cut into space and react with a good pass in unpredictable ways.

Most teams, including BYU, run more than a few offensive sets. To his credit, Rose tries to modify the ball screens in his sets to free up the best player (Haws) where he is deadliest (midrange). BYU's base offensive set involves a high post screen and roll from a big man in the high post - but this hardly ever results in a pass off the roll, and only results in clogging the top of the key with two defenders. Check out the Basketball Pick and Roll offense - it's something BYU uses a lot:

He also uses the Open Post Offense when he has a decent big man who can score. Having a athletic big man with a decent shot should be interesting this year (Neilson), because he is a great candidate to execute high post screens and get an open shot up top. However, what BYU might lack this year is a big man who has proven he can execute off of low post feeds. If someone can do this consistently, it will go a long way for Rose's offense. Mika last year was decent at it, but not great. Davies was excellent in the post and in passing inside-out.

In general - where I think Rose's offense is lacking the most is that he needs more motion, better screens - the offense stagnates a lot, and depends on someone like Carlino or Collinsworth to beat multiple defenders to get shots. He does a good job of spreading the floor and freeing up Haws, but his system REALLY relies on 2 players for most of its offensive production.

I really think he needs a PG who can execute his stuff and get his team into offenses. In my opinion, this is where Carlino was weakest. Good ball handler, but not much leadership. When KC took over, you saw a pretty dramatic uptick in this alone.
