Refreshing to know that Jordi knows what he has on that final inbounds with 2.5 seconds with the lead. Ben can't shoot, but he has height, he's the trigger man. Cam Thomas is the distraction. Schroeder is the speed man so Jordi makes sure the backcourt is clear to receive the inbounds to run out the clock.
You can argue it's a low bar for Jordi, but...you've seen our previous coaches.
Jordi is doing a great job coaching the team. A key difference is that he doesn’t force-feed the ball to Cam. Instead, he runs the offense more like the Miami Heat, where they have an offense that involves mostly the non-alpha when the defense is weak (Schroeder lead halfcourt offense with Ben Simmons in transition), while using their alpha as a decoy, and score within the flow.
And when the defense tightens up, they have a fresh Alpha ready to step up.
