Damian Lillard: “We just weren’t in a lot of pick and rolls together. For a long time, it was like we were just playing in transition, or I was in the iso, or he was in the iso. There just wasn’t a lot of pick and rolls, so the best way to get chemistry in pick and rolls is to be in a lot of pick and rolls together. It got to the point with Doc where he was just having us in practice, saying, ‘Just set it, throw it to Giannis. Giannis, give it back to Dame. All right, Dame, throw it back. All right, Giannis, uphill DHO.’ It was almost like the team was laughing at us just repping it out over and over.” -via YouTube / October 4, 2024
