I think he’s fine with his pump and drive. The problem Monday were the Pels packed the paint. Thus every shot at the rim was highly difficult. We needed to keep shooting threes and passing out for open threes even though we were missing them. It’s still a better shot than highly contested shots in the paint.
Agreed. Notice I said he's great from "triple threat", which is the beginning stance of every pump and drive situation. My issue specifically is when KAT starts his dribble in the half court and tries to do fancy crossovers etc like he's trying to be Allen Iverson, but he ends up looking like he's dancing in place. It usually ends up with him jacking up an awkward low percentage shot.
