Dlo and Towns pick and roll/pop

Post by BloopOracle »

Anyone else feel like they have strong potential to absolutely murder teams in a 2 man game? Dlo made Jarret Allen look like an offensive machine with his lobs and pocket passes. Now you pair him with Towns who is putting up historic numbers despite never having a point guard who had both the ability to throw a fucking entry pass and be a shooting threat?

Probably not since with this roster nobody else is worth guarding.

I like the pocket pass.

I miss good passing from Minnesota PGs

Pocket passes are nice. The one problem with that though is I can't remember the last time Towns ever rolled into that pocket over fading out to the 3pt line. Towns should be unguardable in the PnR like Kevin Love was. Except he always sets a bad screen and fades to the 3pt line rather than actually move based on what the defense gives you. We'll see. Maybe Russell will actually force him to play more than one way in the PnR.

What end of the court are we talking about here?

I mean they might murder the Wolves when we are on the defensive end.

Trust the pRosas. Kat and Dlo will play offense. Culver and Josh play defense. Problem solved.

Yeah no need to function as a 5 man unit on either end.

Cool starts the day off apologizing but the negativity keeps rising.

I'm only apologizing for my persistence, not my stance. I'm a very pissed off fan.
