Magicpassion 4 Report post Posted December 28, 2019 It seems like when we are locked in on D and AG plays the way he should; we win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All Eyes On Me 1,210 Report post Posted December 28, 2019 Way to back in to a victory... beep beep beep... I was livid when Clifford called that timeout before the last inbound pass turnover. Bad coaching. You got the ball in quick and clean to Fournier, gotta live with the results of that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feel like part of Cliffords job is knowing the right move for his team, which isn’t always the same thing as the common, predictable basketball move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spaceman 58 Report post Posted December 28, 2019 Just a question to all you that know strategy much better than I. When Phili is making their run why not at least token back court pressure to just add a little stress instead of letting them roll it up to the line? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So Ben Simmons basically only scores running downhill so you don't want to push him to run by letting him get past your hip. It makes more sense to keep him in front of you. We wanted to force Philly to score against our half court defense, not let them get out in pseudo-transition. I'm most other situations we would have our point guard pester theirs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
