I've had a good idea of writing an article talking about the in-depth details of every Offensive Set in the game.

For this, I'd need to make interviews with some GMs that actually runs the offensive sets in their teams, to talk about the specific players who thrives under the system, what it boosts, what it doesn't, try to clarify some myth or truths (such as 3pt shooters when playing Single Post) or the importance of a skill set for an offensive system (like Jumpers for dribble drive set).

I'd love to start that by talking about the Single Post offense. Anyone currently using that or experienced enough that wants to share it's thoughts and have a good debate about that system? If you are interested in helping, hit me by PM, and I'll send some questions. It might be an interview, in which I send you questions, you answer them all and I do the article, or a conversation, which I send you three questions, you answer them and send me one or two back, I send the answers plus one or two final questions and it's done.

Also, if that could count as an article for both guys involved, that might attract more attention to doing this. This would be of great benefit for the league and for GMs to share their thoughts about offensive sets, improving DDS knowledge for everyone and making the league more competitive!

Good, I'll prepare some (different) questions and send both of you. This alone might be able to generate a good article!
Thanks guys!

Pretty happy with results when I do isolation. Dribble drive has been good too. And I tried double post with Faried/Young while Harden was out. Honestly with a prime Harden, I could run the Underpants On Head offensive set and still make the playoffs. I don't even think real life Brian Shaw could fuck that up.

Yep - ran single post in oCSL with Amare Fricken Stoudemire as my center and had a Cinderella run into the post season as, I think, the 8th ranked Bobcats.

I remember Amare had like a 60 point, 20 rebound game during the regular season - haha.

Oh Amare.....
