I mean, with the way the Cavs shot the three, I do wonder if its worth just keeping two wings who can kind of try to make LeBron work (PJ + one more), and then just absolutely load up on shooters and make it a three point contest.
If DeMar keeps improving as a distributor (a likely scenario to me considering how he keeps improving every year), I think it could be a really effective offense considering he's one of the elite drivers in the league. Just need someone who doesn't immediately freeze the ball when he gets DeMar's pass out of the trap *COUGHSERGECOUGH*
Yup. Run it right through Derozan. If they went into the offseason telling him "you're going to be the primary ball handler" ala Harden, Thomas (the only reason he is a "PG" is his height), Kawhi, George, Antetokounmpo, he'd work his butt off all summer. He's already got the usage%. And imagine how open the lane would be with actual shooters.
You'd definitely need on ball defenders at the 1 and 3 to cover for him since his defense is still...Demarian. I would just use what the Rockets have done as a blueprint, tbh.
