He will bring a player-friendly system which could attract recruits. That system is "Nellie Ball", fun and gun offense with no defense. It's not championship basketball but fun to watch. AJ is a Don Nelson protégé.

More reason to try to hire TR Dunn as an assistant.

Nellie ball went out the door with Don Nelson. Johnson brought a more defensive minded approach and more iso on offense. Completely different from Nelson.

Nope. He didn't run "Nellie Ball" at Dallas. Pretty different philosophies actually.
