Spurs have had the same system for more than a decade and the continuity of coaching and stars to make it happen. When they look into the draft they don't look for most talented but the guy most likely to contribute in a set system and its truly amazing how well young players can come in and be effective for them.

Most teams, including this Mavs team don't even have a system until the coach can find a combination and a style that works. Dallas has only one starter guaranteed to come back and no PG like Parker or Rondo to anchor any system we may have. Carlisle will have to look at what the roster is and try to work a system around his talent and can't recruit talent around a system.

It'd be lovely to mastermind a system that works and then build to it, but without the core players to anchor the system, its almost impossible and we don't have the young core to make it work. We have the most versatile player in history and nothing else. There isnt even a hint of offensive system-- Dirk can just do anything and he may be best in the iso.
