He’s clearly being coached to run to the corner and he knows Murray wasn’t planning on passing the ball anyway.

He should have sprinted up the court instead of jogged, but running to the corner falls on Mike Malone. Jamal Murray is also just a poor point guard. He should’ve attacked Beal and then the pass to the wing doesn’t look so idiotic.
It wasn’t a set play. It was a fast break last ditch opportunity. Porter’s own BBIQ has to kick in. He chose to be in position to win it and not tie it. I don’t even wanna believe that he had no clue what the score was.

Analytics in no way discourages layups at the basket :wtf:


Porter’s just an idiot and everyone who was behind the three point line wanted to be the hero.

Yea but you have to reprogram players. Everytime I watch a game, 80% of the time, these guys stay running to the three point line.

This is what they’re taught to do on fast breaks. I posted the quote from Monte Morris talking about the philosophy. Should his IQ have kicked in? Probably, but the break was ran exactly how they were taught.

Murray messed up the entire play because he wanted to take a hero 3-pointer instead of kicking it up or driving to attack. It was bad basketball.

3 guys running to the same area for a 3 didn't give him a lot of options. It was poor play from everyone involved.

Everywhere...You never there.
Women's game is more structured, they actually probably have better fundamentals than the guys. It would have been a textbook fastbreak for an easy layup.


Maaaan listen ... the women woulda finished that break on some textbook Dr. James Naismith shooting underhanded on the peach basket shyt . And woulda made it look easy . #LightWork






But these dudes in your new nba ... :snoop:
