00:00What has stood out to you the most about the offensive identity they've established through these first 12 games of the season?

00:06Statistically, there's not a dramatic difference, although there is in one category, which I'll get to.

00:11But I think it's visually, aesthetically, that is the biggest difference from Tom Thibodeau to Mike Brown.

00:17They certainly wanted a coach who was going to diversify the offense a little bit.

00:21Now, obviously, under Tibbs, they were a top five offense last season.

00:24They were very effective.

00:26They made the conference finals.

00:27But that doesn't mean that you can't be even more effective and that you can lessen the burden on Jalen Brunson a bit.

00:34And I think that's what Mike Brown has sought to do.

00:35They look a little different.

00:37They're playing a little different.

00:38I like the way the ball moves now.

00:40I like the offense.

00:40I like it being a little bit less Jalen-centric, less of the ball kind of sticking.

00:45The movement, I think, is good in the modern era.

00:47I mentioned the one statistical area where they are dramatically different, and that is three-point shooting.

00:52They're taking 10 more threes per game this season so far than they did last season.

00:56You have to do that in today's NBA, not just to keep up with, you know, your competition, but to maximize all of your role players.

01:04If you've got good three-point shooters, use them.
