Agreed, that is basically his old move we dont see anymore. He used to fly up and shoot through the D/screen, or cut inside a little and then shoot.
He can do his old move, but not when he is storming down LW over and over. It became too predictable.
On the GWG, their D were scrambling, it was a thing of beauty. We simply do not see enough crosses, drop passes, fake shots, backhand passes tried, moving our studs into the places they kill teams. Basics.
Teaching of these things should be right up Oates alley but he seems more engulfed in miniscule details, like the angle of a stick blade on the shot.
