Its a hell of a lot better than whatever the shite Pel was trying to do, I think in year three he finally was able to install part of the flex offense.
Hate the flex with a passion. Too much standing.
The thing I love about motion is that it incorporates like a machine. All the parts have to keep moving for it to work, unfortunately in today's world that is the hardest thing to do with players now. The motion also is nearly impossible to defend because it changes based on the defense.

Motion is my favorite offense, any version.

It is the simplest offense in the world to run, on the college level you should be able to teach it in one practice, it took Pel season's and they still couldn't do it right.

Pel gave up on the motion early on, because you are right, if you do not move it doesn't work, but if you have players that are not lazy it is damn near impossible to stop because of the options, every screen has 3-5 options based on what the defender does off the screen.
Knight could get his players to play in this system and Nolan and Mike have had success getting their guys too as well, but with the press you have times when they get tired and stand around too much, but that is also why you see them go 7-8 deep on the bench during the game.
