Message: [QUOTE="Umami Zen, post: 4203854, member: 10678"] AJ is disruptive on defense. .Deflections/tipped passes/loose balls/defensive boards/occasional blocks.. Frequently leading to initiating the offense heading down court where his vision and passing come in. Would be a different dynamic on offense if his teammates ever rewarded him for his defensive efforts by throwing him an occasional back door pass/lob pass when running the base line if the initial shots weren't there.. Similar to rewarding a Big for blocking a shot-running the floor- and receiving a pass for a layup/dunk. There are sequences where the only opportunity for him to touch the ball is on a rebound/dribbling up court. Running a play for him(within his skill set) -occasionally- would certainly surprise the defense and force them to guard him and free up his teammates for one-on-one coverage. BTW-I am not saying setting up a three pointer/jump shot. [/QUOTE]
