X's & O's
Gordon likes to push transition offense, locating their shooters early on for easy looks. In the half-court they usually go 3-out-2-in, with their bigs initiating their offense with down-screens, then proceeding into a Motion offense with lots of screens and single-singles. Look for plenty of plays where Miersma gets a look down-low.
On the defensive end, Gordon utilizes a half-court man, picking up at the three-point line. They look to pack their defense in, protecting the paint, and collapsing on drives. MIT's shooters need to be prepared to knock down the open looks.
