Cade looked so much more faster in this. Idk if he’s out of shape but I still remember him playing very well, almost doesn’t seem like the same player. Even some of his decisions were really fast, something he struggled with this season. Thoughts?

    Different offense and different personnel. Super basic stuff but it works when you have someone like that in charge.

    Look how easy it is to just set quick screens like that and have Cade move to the open area in the midrange where he eats. Covered up? send the ball to the cutter or out wide to Bogey who is extremely capable offensively.

    We don’t have these driving lanes at all right now in any of our rotations, most of the time Cade is doing this stuff this season it’s through 3-4 defenders and not typically ending well. He’s moving more slowly because our offense is so static and there’s nothing there to exploit whereas in this game you can see there’s just enough to attack on all those shots near the rim and its there early in the possession.
