or just individual movement with the ball trying to create an opening. Since Purdue wasn't switching much out front, the Dent/Bilodeau combo was working well. Plus Dent often times just dribbled till he got an opening and then went into the paint and either shot or found an open man to pass to. Very simple offense with not a lot of structure other than generally keeping good spacing and floor balancing. Looked a little like some of the NBA team's actions I've watched. And as you said, not much running around on the perimeter with weave action and side to side movement.
Relating to the defense, it was either some sort of match up zone or a very tight switching defense. Often difficult to tell the difference. Very similar to what Oregon often uses. That's what it looked like to me.
