    Yes! He isn't Harden, he sucks at iso plays, no idea why we are expecting him to be good at that.

    With PnR he can ate least be above average and not totally horrible.

    Simmons played 2 full seasons before he hit an NBA 3 pointer. When one finally went down, the entire gym......and internet...erupted.

    That should say it all.

    1) Westbrook could use the extra space to get going down hill
    2) The big setting the screen could slip it, get a pass rolling to the rim and score or create a 3pt shot.
    3) The screen could pop out for an open 3.

    Pick and rolls are very versatile, there's a reason it's a fundamental basketball play.

    The story was interesting, but that needs to happen during halftime.

    pnrs are versatile only if you keep the defense having to guess. everybody knows in a pnr with westbrick they're going under. plain and simple
