The Majority Of Frank’s sets are NOT clearout type sets designed to create maximum space. Most of his sets are motion sets that require him to wait as they develop. They are not designed for Frank to have MAX space to attack after the screen is set.
Jeff is calling those plays! Jeff decided to OPEN the floor when Burke was playing going with Early Spread PnR. Not slow developing Weaves or any other actions where the other players are bringing their defenders into the PG’s Space. Think about it how often do you remember Frank getting a clear out so he could be the primary option? I invite everyone to look at the plays I posted again and note the INTENTION of each play Burke had vs Frank’s typical plays. TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
lol you are stupid. Frank getting a clear out would be the worst option on any play given his terrible shooting
Lol he isnt talking about a clear out iso ala Jordan in a one on one matchup for a bucket. Its a PNR with shooters stationed near the bottom corners 3s. And a pick set at the top of the 3 for maximum spacing for a possible lane. Typical PG play in todays NBA.
Thanks for understanding what I’ve been trying to point out. Perhaps Jeff was trying something new with Burke that he will also try with Frank but I was noticing all season that Frank’s sets tended to be slow developing and non aggressive from a PG perspective.
There seems to be a misunderstanding about play calls. The PG isn’t supposed to just wing it and break plays just cuz he can. There’s no lanes for Frank to drive on many of the plays Jeff runs with him. Those plays feature more post players and cutters. All the Off Ball Motion causes Frank to wait.
The Burke plays I posted were designed to feature the PG and Screener as the Primary options. The exaggerated spacing helps to give the PG the advantage and forcing help to have to travel a greater distance. That’s the whole point of Spread PnR.
Think about it how often do you remember Frank being in Spread PnR? It’s less than I think he should get. He has to get used to that kind of play. I think Jeff has to almost force Frank into those looks so he has no choice but to look to score and be more aggressive in a play that helps open things up for him. Last year Jeff used Early Spread PnR much more. Especially early in the season.
