Jerry Sloan System vs. Mike D'Antoni System.

[Lebron23]

Which basketball system is more successful?

[LukeWalton]

MickeyDs of course
everyone is copying his system now.

[Bronbron23]

Which basketball system is more successful?

Hard to say. They were both explosive offenses that came close to winning chips. They were just different in terms of the way they were ran. The point gaurd in sloanes offense was used more of a facilitator. In dantoni system they're still used to facilitate but they have a large scoring role aslo.

MDA. It literally changed the league. Everybody runs a variation of it now.

[Axe]

Is there any hope that D can still lead his team to a championship with his system?

Jazz played in the 1997 and 1998 nba finals.

not really. The teams that win dont.

[Xiao Yao You]

Sloan ran the Dick Motta system

[999Guy]

Sloan actually had wrinkles upon wrinkles. Used across screening actions with guards like Jeff and Stockton setting unpredictable, uncomfortable screens on top of pick and roll spam like D’Antoni.

D’Antoni is an idiot who figured out the practicality of simplicity. His philosophy actually proves his unimaginative nature and not some genius but people don’t get that.

Look at how the Rockets played the past 3 years. It pretty much ran Chris Paul out of there with how predeictable they were.

On TOP of that D’Antoni coaches literally one side of the ball and doesn’t develop talent. He stinks. Teams have taken his principles and gone way further with them.

[GimmeThat]

it's just the switch up between the 2 and the 3. the length of passes in the half court system are both not long enough to be successful in the playoff.

[ImKobe]

Sloan's Jazz teams were the most consistent RS team before Pop came along, and they actually made the Finals.

[Docs Orders]

D'Antoni, like every else said was evolutionary groundwork to other systems.


Consistnt in deep playoff contention, hyper inflating stars potential. The only star player to digress under Mike D was Kobe, similar to how he did under Brown/Byron ball. (3 COTY's)


D'antoni Empowers his players potential putting guys like Jeremy Lin on the map

[nayte]

Both great systems . Neither won but that’s due to who they played against more then the systems

[FKAri]

not really. The teams that win dont.

Every single team that won starting from 2011 onwards incorporated techniques that MDA pioneered.
