People say, "I can't watch the NBA. It's just a three-point shooting contest." 60 of the Celtics' 130 came on threes. Yet, it's more.
I follow Doc Rivers' 13 clip rule, no more than 13 clips. Find something that our players can use.
Screen and defense goes under. Splash.
Pindown, curl, catch, and hard crossover. Skill rules.
"One more" and then attack and pass.
Lamelo finds a cutter. He "draws 2" and gets a dime.
Rob Williams can pass and JT can cut.
BOB. The screener is the second cutter on this backscreen.
Short-roll passing into another open shot.
High ball screen, attack, and lob. Marcus Smart with a 'screen assist'.
The great shot fake is a "shot not taken." JT adds a side dribble three.
VDE. Vision-decision-execution genius from Lamelo Ball.
"Movement kills defenses." Ball movement...
The skill that matters most, shooting...51 points. Yes, the threes add up.
