    We unfortunately dont play a style of team ball with a lot of movement, just a bunch of iso-ing.

    Like for Reed, I would imagine that it would benefit him greatly if he was moving around like curry with the team helping him to get to his spots instead of asking him to create out of nothing.

    I just wish for more ball movement. Is that too much to ask?

    That was on Amen, I have no idea why he was running so close to Jabari like that.
