In this one we saw 9 teams that would be pretty equal talent wise. We wanted to create something different and hard to defend.
We will push the pace and push it well.
Magic always makes his teammates better. Imagine telling Luka, look bro, you’re just gonna put the ball in the bucket, and I’m gonna feed you. Imagine telling Chuck, just run to the high post and I’ll get you the ball for easy dunks. Hey Pat, run rim to rim. You’ll get easy blocks and easy lay ins. That’s what we’ve established here. Good defense, followed with specific roles on offense. Would be hella fun to watch and it would win a ton of games.
VS. Laimbeer:
Ewing on Jokic. Chuck on DFS. Magic on Tatum. KCP on Ray. Luka (Caruso) on Porter.
Plan to slow Jokic and Tatum and let the rest play itself out. We have the perimeter defense to match up well here, especially with Ewing protecting the rim.
Offensively we will attack on fast breaks getting by Ray Ray, Tatum and getting the rim putting pressure on Jokic. Magic pick and roles in the half court with really any of Luka, Chuck or Ewing will be impossible to defend.
Magic makes his normal teammates better. Imagine what he can do with a dream team.
