Here is what Wikipedia says about Tom Crean's style of play.
"Crean's basketball philosophy emphasizes fast breaks and deflections. On offense, he has a reputation for the magnitude of his offensive sets and their multitude of options, with one opposing coach estimating about 400 different sets run. Shot selection is extremely important, with a focus on spacing, inside-out attacks, penetration and kick. On defense Crean emphasizes contesting each of the opponent's steps on the court. Crean utilizes the halfcourt defense which requires great ball pressure, help from teammates, challenging shots, and defensive rebounding."
“Emphasizes fast breaks and deflections” seems to be what everyone on here has clamored for. Hopefully, “400 different sets” does not mean overly complicated. On defense, it sounds like full court pressure and attacking passing lanes. Sorry Elevator, no mentions of zone defenses. Hopefully, he mixes up his defenses when appropriate.
