A lot of coaches have tried to implement the defense first and open offense second.. but takes a hughe commitment (and talent) from the players to make it work..
As long as Fiz keeps giving PT to those who play defense and share the ball it will be progress..
agreed and that's been my point from the beginning of this rebuild....and yes every coach says that but not every coach had 100% back from the front office and actively got players who are athletic and can pass.
https://youtu.be/DVEpKrTId3Ycheck this vid on Kerr discussing his defense...and if you envision Frank in Klays position defense wise esp since they are similar in size it's a great point of attack.
defend multiple spots/ pass the ball effectively/ shoot the 3.
if you look at the 70's Knicks they were ahead of their time...they passed in a free flow offense ...had multiple playmakers...guys who spread the floor. and I'm not saying build the team like theirs but it's just something as a NBA psycho it just clicked in my mind when hearing Fiz and seeing the wave we are building
and that's why I wanted Mikal over Knox....I like knox's ceiling and I see his work ethic which I like but I question things in his game...but at 18 years old he has plenty of time to work on them. my frame of thought is to have 1-4 able to switch...and have KP at the rim. on offense u can have 5 guys who shoot the 3 and create open lanes to attack since u cant pack the paint OR work out the post either way works idc but those 3 principles has been my vision since 2015. and I'm just patiently waiting to see the stars align
