re: #1 problem with this team IMO

Every team has hot and cold streaks, true, but individually, we have more streaky shooters than the Warriors, I think anyone that has watched basketball would recognize that. Though again, I’m not sure why this particular observation has gotten to be so controversial either? As you say, streakiness in numerous individuals does not have to prevent an offense from being efficient.

Do people honestly think Moore, Jrue, Lonzo, Jackson, and Hart are dead eye, knockdown, can’t ever leave them open or they will gouge you, three point shooters? Reddick is the only one that fits that bill. And we use him masterfully. But how you overcome individual variance in players is by playing smart team basketball on offense. Moving the ball to the right guys, on the right nights, in the right spots.

Again, not really sure why this is so controversial to some. We have one all time great shooter, one who is increasingly reliable but still not really a bomber, and then a bunch of guys that can move the ball well and have the capacity to be efficient from three but are a differing level of higher variance from night to night. So what we have done is craft a guard and ball movement heavy rotation that can find the right individuals night to night and have diverse skillsets to get buckets. Which has resulted in a really fun, synergistic offensive team. One that I personally would focus less on pure perimeter position shooters and more on the spacing aspect, like getting a guy that can draw defenders away from Zion like a Serge Ibaka or Myles Turner.
