think the PnR defensive scheme needs to be more aggressive. big still dropping. you have mobile guys, let them play up.

This will be a fun line up

Tyler and Booker on the floor together is like a video game +5 shooting and passing bonus

Len and Gobert are super similar in stature and body type. Gobert should be the aim to shoot for as far as how Len should play/develop

I like that they're making Rubio a shooter more than a facilitator. It's smart bball

Great defence! Too bad you didn't finish the posession out strong, let Rubio get the steal and layup

Risky pass from James but it was a good idea

not sure its the defense, moreso Ricky has been too aggressive looking for his shot on the Jazz. think he needs to probe more like he used to, right now quickly settling for a jumper

so a play they have for Booker off-ball is him curling into a midrange shot. Why not use that same style but for a 3PTA?

Oh yes hold them accountable, stop moping about the non call and pass the ball Chriss, and good to see Chandler engaged

Great timeout by Triano. Chriss got hit in the head after the rebound and started to sulk and didn't push up the court. That's a learning time timeout.

James and Chandler disagreeing about the direction of the screen. James wanted it set for him to go baseline, Chandler wanted James to go middle.

Still waiting for one of those 30 point quarters from Book. It will happen eventually.
