I thought he set weak screens at Texas, barely making contact a lot of the time.
He was stepping into some really good screens and creating a lot of space for Briscoe and Caupain yesterday.
Generally speaking the more forceful Bamba plays, with screens being a big part of that, the better off he’ll be.
Encouraging sign.
May have been better than Texas, but I didn't see many solid NBA screens from Bamba in the first two games. He seems to be dancing around, instead settling and setting a solid screen. Not sure why he avoids contact like that, plenty of time to change that mentality though. Clifford should straighten that out fairly quickly.
