To my eye, the rest of the team worked incredibly well to enable what Clark did, and their defense on SC was just as crucial as Clark’s offensive brilliance. The passing from everyone on the team was very precise, and Czinano’s footwork around the basket was unreal. Plus there were several other shooters who were able to hit key shots aside from Clark. I think Iowa is quite well coached, and the team as a whole plays very well together, and they also happen to have a generational talent in Clark who helped carry them to the title game.
Iowa had a flow offense that actually flowed, particularly when their starting post was in the game. I agree they were well coached and had a good game plan to use against a taller team.
