Most double teamed players in the NBA

What? Our starting lineup is filled with ball handlers?

Dribbling isn’t ball handling lol

You are suggesting that FVV, SIakam, and Barnes are not all good ball handlers / playmakers? Hell, you can add GTJ as a guy who can handle the ball and get his own shot.

This is just blind hatred lol

Sure, I bet you think Jokic is a good ball handler too?

I’m saying just because a player can bounce a ball, doesn’t mean they can handle in traffic, navigate a pick and roll and create for others as well as themselves off the bounce.

You call it hatred, I call it honesty. I love this team. No hate here.

10. Russell Westbrook

Why are people doubling him? Opposing teams should keep the ball in his hands as long as possible

Haha...would be great to see who doesn't read the scouting reports. It sounds like some coaching staffs are going off old reputation rather than current play.

Never knew that FVV was getting this. He's 6th among all players. Pascal 13th

FVV is second highest in team points produced when doubled at 1.23 points/possession. Pick your poison carefully!

[YogurtProducer]

Considering he's the only ballhandling guard we play, it makes sense. Likewise with Pascal

What? Our starting lineup is filled with ball handlers?

Lol what?

Barnes/OG are poor ball handlers, Siakam is fine especially for his position but even his handle isn't very tight, even he's admitted that lol

GTJ is not a ball handler either. He can create his own shot off the dribble a bit, but by no means is he a ball handling guard.

There is a reason our offense is middle of the pack and looks absolutely dreadful at times. We lack guys who can create offense through their ability to handle the basketball in the half court

Our offence, currently ranked 10th, is middle of the pack? That’s news to me.

Our offence is horrible when we have our bench in, but our starting lineup offence is quite good.

[Ell Curry]

I think part of this is that Fred's lack of size to pass over doubles make him easier to double effectively.

Really? Doubled effectively?

I meant more in terms of what teams are trying then how it's working out. Small guards who can shoot from 25 feet get trapped more.

I'm pretty sure the answer here is Lou Williams.

The fact that it has risen to tenth says how good it has been the last month plus.

Gary Trent isn't a ballhandler is just such a bad take again. Every single starter can create his own offense, da fuq.

this. Barnes and OG can't handle the ball and can't create for themselves on a consistent basis.

and like what Dukes said, GTJ doesn't create for others and is strictly a scorer in this stage of his career.

everyone knows this. thats why the strategy is get the ball out of Siakam and FVV's hands. hence this conversation of the stats by OP.

general ball movement is also lacking.

Near dead last in assists.

That's interesting. I'm not familiar with the distinction. Could you explain it, please?

Dribbling isn't ball handling? 'Handles'? Wtf is it then, I'm confused.

[Mascot]

No shooters,
High minutes played
makes sense

Can OG, GTJ or Scottie navigate pick and roll, dribble in traffic, get themselves open with their dribble or find others as elite playmakers?

This isn’t your YMCA league where nobody can defend

This thread was referenced on Will Lou's show yesterday with Blake Murphy. Nice.

I'm pretty sure the answer here is Lou Williams.

Boomin' out in South Gwinnett like Lou Will
6 man like Lou Will, 2 girls and they get along like I'm...

Like I'm Lou Will, I just got the new deal
