It's one thing if say, once a game in a halfcourt set Cuz finds himself wide open for a 3 and pulls the trigger.

It's quite another when he's looking for it, especially in transition. He's running to the 3pt line instead of getting his ass on the block for a quick basket inside. And it appears by design.

The ball movement is pretty nice with this unit, ball not sticking anywhere. Obviously Koufos is missing down low, but this unit shows potential with more time.

Yes thats my only complaint, why is Cuz standing out at the 3 point line 70% of the time when he was being guarded by Markieff and Teletovic? First unit looked great though, bench unit sloppy as hell. Another game another storyline, pre season folks.

Sounds like dribble drive to me. One big at the basket and the other 4 are out at the 3 point line.

Rondo with 5 sat early. Cousins shot is off but getting to line. Yes small ball not looking good. I will chalk this up to Koufos being out.

I refuse to believe that all of a sudden he is being told to shoot three's instead of doing what he has been doing the last two seasons and that is run the floor, pin his man under the basket and receive the ball for a dunk, lay up or foul.

Collison obviously drank what Rudy had before Portland game. Casspi looking sloppy as hell as well. A ton of dumb turnovers with this unit. WCS instantly comes in and makes a difference defensively.

And you're aware Karl and Cuz have both mentioned he'd be shooting 3's?
