Exactly, if you look at all the top teams in the league, most of them run a structured offense, Spurs, Pistons, Jazz. Teams like the Cavs and Warriors are probably the exception.
The Utah Jazz are one of the teams that run motion sets with lots of off-ball cutting and screening. It's refreshing to watch great offense executed by great players. This is part of the reason why Jerry Sloan is the longest tenured coach in the NBA. His teams play the game, the way it is supposed to be played.

I totally agree with you. The NBA needs more offense that involves cutting, passing and the pick-n-roll. There's way too much one-on-one stuff going on, and it's spreading to the younger kids playing basketball.
