the general concept to drive to the basket to get help defenders moving
That driving has been what’s missing in the losses. Shamit has been posting player drives stats after games and the losses tend to coincide with a much lower number of drives from the guards.
Not having an inside presence with Zion and Favors out so much has been a big impediment to driving IMO. When Jaxson was in last game the guards were driving non stop because Jaxson was rolling to the rim with them and they knew they had a safety valve. That’s why I think we need to wait for Zion to return before judging Lonzo.
The “system” looks like a bunch of guys chucking 3s because they don’t have the personnel to feel comfortable driving. Hopefully Jaxson can keep filling that hole some.

Ive been saying the same thing about Lonzo. Not once dating back to his freshman in college have I ever thought he would be a Nba star but I think we need to give him 20 games with Zion and even Hayes until we pass judegement.

Yeah, and that's why NAW had a positive +/- at the beginning of the year, even when he was missing all of his shots. We have to drive to the basket to be successful, and early in the season, Jrue wasn't doing that early in the season (and it remains to be seen whether Ball will do it much at all).

1000%
this is one of the reasons BI has been so effective. he attacks, draws help defense which creates openings for others, and has shown to be a good enough passer to get it those players or has shown to be a gifted scorer to turn that play into points.
