in his remarks that 3-point opportunities, particularly early in the possession, were the priority of the offense. Getting into the paint was not, unless it was for the purpose of collapsing the defense to create an open 3. Rebounding and free throws attempts were acceptable casualties of his system.

This year is clearly a departure from that system.

You could argue that the 2 systems were reflections of the personnel he had available, but I don't think you can say the offense we're running this year is the same one he tried to run last year.

     OR the players are bigger, faster, better etc nm - MIZtigerZOU MU - 1/19 10:24:57
          You hit the nail on the head. (nm) - go tigers MU - 1/19 14:33:50
               BINGO! nm - thytiger MU - 1/19 18:39:08
          Because Gates stopped insisting they had to be 3 pt - alstl MU - 1/19 12:30:49
     The only system change was getting better players(nm) - BlackSheep MU - 1/19 09:29:07
          Yep. That and not having major injuries and more depth. (nm) - go tigers MU - 1/19 14:34:32
          Gates publicly said he would not recruit any player who - alstl MU - 1/19 12:31:54
          I don't think that's true. Last year Gates was consistent - phrejd KC - 1/19 11:31:39
               He spent almost all last season talking about - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/19 19:47:50
                    And made obvious changes that resulted in a lot more - phrejd KC - 1/19 20:52:06
                         The obvious changes were in personnel - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/19 20:59:05
                              Obvious to people who don't understand what's happening - phrejd KC - 1/19 21:41:16
                                   There’s a bigger change from season 1 - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/19 22:08:30
               Yet 3 pointers was the difference last 2 games (nm) - oldtgr MU - 1/19 12:12:10
               Dude who manned the 4/5 positions last year? - BlackSheep MU - 1/19 11:39:22
                    Right. So saying he's running the same system is silly. (nm) - phrejd KC - 1/19 11:40:59
                         They shot 3s last year because they no inside presence - BlackSheep MU - 1/19 11:48:16
                              I can't help you here (nm) - phrejd KC - 1/19 11:49:16
                                   Nor can I help you(nm) - BlackSheep MU - 1/19 12:12:46
          And...a Healthy Grill!(nm) - oldtgr MU - 1/19 11:21:10
               YES^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^...nm - tigertix MU - 1/19 11:21:42
          Yes. - Gavin Citrus MU - 1/19 10:01:35
               Can't say that - BlackSheep MU - 1/19 10:37:38
                    Gates is clearly - Gavin Citrus MU - 1/19 11:12:30
                         Agreed(nm) - BlackSheep MU - 1/19 11:13:18
     Adding Mitchell has been transformative in that regard(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 1/19 09:12:14
          True - a big thank you to the deep pocket NIL donors - alstl MU - 1/19 09:22:25
               Crues has a significant NIL deal(nm) - tman MU - 1/19 09:40:59
                    Recruiting should NOT have to rely on - GA Tiger MU - 1/19 10:41:11
               He left Duke because of Flagg - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/19 09:37:07
                    He and Tamar Bates are good friends. That helped as well. (nm) - go tigers MU - 1/19 14:37:14
                    Missouri outbid dozens of schools for his services(nm) - alstl MU - 1/19 12:32:44
                         But Missouri didn't "snatch him away from Duke" - El Zorro MU - 1/19 12:40:16
                              He threw a dart at a map and hit CoMO. It had nothing to do - alstl MU - 1/19 13:21:45
                                   It’s odd that only Mizzou is paying to get players - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/19 15:01:33
                                   Uh, no. * - go tigers MU - 1/19 14:38:52
                              Correct. Also there were really dozens - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/19 12:48:20
               Your opinion - BlackSheep MU - 1/19 09:27:51
               He grew up in KC and knew Bates(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 1/19 09:26:47
                    And instead of following Bates to Indiana he chose Duke - alstl MU - 1/19 12:50:23
                    Yes but chose Duke, perhaps a little of both scenarios?(nm) - oldtgr MU - 1/19 11:25:18
                         I meant after he decided to leave Duke(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 1/19 11:28:55
