I definitely agree with Hackenberg that Coach K is an "offensive-minded" coach. On the Coaches Show tonight, Coach K said that they give up some easy layups in transition because they send 4 guys to the boards to get offensive rebounds and send 1 guy back on defense after a missed shot. He described this as "high risk/high reward." The high risk being that you give up some easy baskets in transition and the high reward being that you get a lot of chances at offensive rebounds and second chance points. He mentioned that Tom Izzo of Michigan State does this also and has done so for many years. I know a lot has been said about their poor defensive play at times this season. It is apparent that Coach K's style of play is focused on the offensive end.
