Don't know where to find specific Dame/Giannis sets, but:
- Dame P&R ball-handler: 0.99 PPP (82nd percentile) on the 5th most possessions of all qualified players
- Giannis roll-man: 1.23 PPP (62nd percentile) on only 7.2% frequency (1.9 possessions per)
Despite the gripes about Dame looking uncomfortable, we ran a **** ton of pick and roll with him (he was 4th in total possessions last season). But the Giannis as a roll-man stuff continues to not be this world destroying weapon that everyone wants it to be, even if you can argue we should be running it more.
Being fair, people wanted them to run it more so it improves -- looking at the regular season as a post season prep. Now that we're here. Who knows what we'll see. I'm guessing we run it enough because at least Dame can always get his open shot from it.
Hopefully they can work on it this offseason and make GA more of a weapon.. Giannis has to get off the screen, keep his eyes and connection to Dame and find a lane between them to move in.
