Message: [QUOTE="Deleted at users request, post: 4504148"] I see very few cuts to score in this game too or backside screens with the intent of a cut to score at the rim. Most of the time it’s guys are just trying to get open on the perimeter. The only one who consistently does it both in the game you showed and St John’s is Karaban and he’s typically rewarded for it. I saw one instance from Alleyne too in the first half (only watched the first) where he made a nice cut to the basket with purpose that he was awarded for. Hawkins should be a big benefactor from those backdoors with how much guys play up on him. Watching St John’s, the spacing isn’t always right for when he does on the floor. But it’s there and open for the taking. Would like to see more of this movement with DC at the top of the key to find guys. Too many times we set screens just to pop out to the 3 point line instead of cut to the rim to make the defense move. [/QUOTE]
