For sure.
I was happy when they returned to a state that made it apparent they valued modern spacing.
Like, @"ItsGoTime", I disliked the way the offense (at times) devolved into (only) creating iso opportunities for one of their three ball-handlers against mismatches. I think that's a valuable option to have, and I'm glad they know how to milk it, but I think the GS series demonstrated that offensively, there are levels to go.
Unlike IGT, I don't fault placing import on spacing as the culprit with that. I just think they haven't developed the system to an adequately advanced level. There were stretches of the season when I thought the ball was humming from player to player, but not at the end, in the playoffs. I hope they have another gear in store for us this time around.
