He's looked good when he's had his opportunity on the big stage. I think playing in some dimly lit gym with a handful of people in the stands must feel like being banished to Siberia for guys that have tasted the really big stage like Butler has. To me he's much better than mid second round just by virtue of his "Big game" performances. Plus he reminds me a bit of Jalen Brunson with his craftiness and toughness.
Here's another crazy though, what if the 6'1 super athlete just stayed in front and contested a guy who was shooting terribly that series?
I’m iso with 5 out you really need to stay in front… funnel/drop big is when there is like a screen action of some sort. There really isn’t a “system” in iso like that.
I said Donovan didn't work hard enough on the play, but I believe the play was designed to funnel him to Rudy. We do that a lot.
You offend their God Gobert and they will try to insult you. Sad thing is Rudy doesn't give one **** about them and neither do we.
no... that wasn't the plan... "funneling" is really drop big pick and roll coverage. In iso you stay in front. Rudy is the help guy but the plan is to not allow guys to get to the most crucial part of the court with ease. Sorry.
There are plenty of times we allow penetration with the expectation they get swallowed up by Rudy. And it's not always a PnR situation.
I mean sure... Its also okay to admit that Donovan almost surely just got cooked there.
Yeah, I don’t know, seems like some kind of an old boys club around here. Whatever, too many petty little games for me. I mean I usually don’t stick around this long in the off-season but there’s been this palpable undercurrent of change since Ainge got hired and I just wanted to be in the know. So I respond occasionally to something that piques my interest and it’s generally an outright ignore. I generally have a lot more fun in the game threads but most these off-season guys are just here to jack each other off like they’re real GMs and coaches. Maybe if you kiss the ring enough times. I’ll never know cause that ain’t me. I really don’t have time for the masquerade anyway. Even in a couple weeks when I retire, I mean how many hypothetical Jazz scenarios can we entertain with our close circle of jerks before we’ve had enough. No wonder some of these guys are so god damn miserable!
I pray this is the case.
You seem fun.
You prolly too smart and important for us.
Straight truth my brother! I appreciate you
I know you’re being sarcastic but I gave you the thumbs up going back to our game thread days. Always seemed like a straight shooter!
LOL. Just a lowly SPED teacher about to be a lowly musician/writer/tennis enthusiast. Not trying to be condescending.
Congratulations on retirement man. You play music for pleasure or for the masses?
