Watch and enjoy my Lakers brethren, we've come a long way from the Kendall Marshall - Rob Sacre pick and rolls.

As long as LeBron's lower body and Ad's upper body stays healthy we can't be picked apart until end of June

The thing is , this pick and roll sort of works w lebron and Dwight as well.

I'I'd love to see the data on how often we run this play and how effective it is. But it feels like we simply cannot run it enough. When those two are on the court together, that should be how we initiate our offense on every single possession.

It just feels that Vogel is trying to run other sets, and he's right, you don't have to unleash the pick & roll for the RS, GSW did the same thing last year, they ran less P&R and come playoffs time they unleashed it. Keep your opponents guessing and don't get too one dimensional. That's the key. Team will just switch this anyway lol

The video shows what happens when the help defense is late or doesn’t come. When it comes early it’s leading to wide open shots. The Lakers 3 point shooting percentage is currently 6th and has been steadily rising. Finished 29th last year.
