Good point. PJ liked to do that. Put a long player on the inbounder to make his pass more difficult which makes it easier to get picked off. I think he did it twice to the Nuggets when they met in WCF in '09. I think it emphasizes the point that the best coaching happens when you are dictating the action more than reacting.Quote:

If the answer is no, I would have left the inbounder wide open (as long as the inbounder wasn't Ray Allen), doubled Lebron, single covered everyone else, and left Hibbert all alone to protect the paint.

i'm flabbergasted.
Would be tricky for a team to inbound and then pass back to the inbounder and have the inbounder take a good look and shot, all in 2.2. seconds.Quote:

That had more to do with George staying in front of him, just like George NOT being in front of him is the reason he DID score in game 1.Quote:
