Offensive adjustments are making it harder for opponents to defend Syracuse

This year’s Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team is going to go as far as their offense will carry them.

During this winning streak Jim Boeheim has implemented some new wrinkles which have helped the Orange respond to their opponents. I’ve been a vocal critic of Boeheim’s reliance on the high ball screen and Syracuse’s habit of standing and watching one player isolated on the wing, but Boeheim’s recently added some NBA concepts to Syracuse to address these issues. The Hall of Fame coach certainly deserves credit for being flexible and making some adjustments to utilize his roster.
