I think they call that an inverted box and one. A four player box around an opposing player and one player zoning the rest ;-)
What happened next? Probably hit the man open at the 3 point line but maybe facing that way was a fake and he did a backhand no look over the shoulder to Gordon for the dunk?
Pass to Morris where he drove left into the paint and hit the floater over challengers.
I dont see if its JMG or Reed but the one on the other side has no idea about spacing, he should go next to baseline to get completely open or draw the defemder further away from Barton, if this makes me angry it makes Jokic angry too.
Oooh and look 3 sub 40% 3 point shooters all just standing around waiting for the ball so they can jack up another missed 3.
At least AG knows how to move under the 3 point line
There's like 35 total guys in the league who shoot 3s above 40%, the Nuggets judt traded for one and have another one who's injured.
So... cut to the hoop, get a 2
Cut to the hoop where four defenders are?
lol, funny enough that's exactly what happened on that play - he went to Monte who cut back to the hoop for a nice two.
In actuality my first post was kind of a high level complaint that the nuggets offence often looks stagnant and only Jokic seems to move around - sometime AG will move without the ball. But the whole team seems to think they are spot up three point shooters.
