Please, PLEASE visit our players in their dreams and put within them a serious desire to spend tons of time and effort on their own developing shot fakes of various types. Make them feel absolutely COMPELLED to practice them as they are putting up shots. I feel like having a team proficient at shot fakes, within Kim's system, could put them over the edge and up to true elite level again.

Do that and I promise I won't ask for anything else this year.

That is all. Thanks.

You are asking for a Barnes type team in which you have a roster of gym rats who eat, live and sleep basketball.

I'm kinda thinkin' that in 19 situations out of 20, CKC would say that a shot fake merely means that you didn't have an open shot and should have passed it to someone who does. She might even have a chart that indicates how much time is lost per game on shot fakes.

I'm with lvocd, this offense looks like it's made for: shot OR shot fake and drive, then kick.

Driving head down into defensive numbers advantage and dumb skip-passes continue to be bad habits that need to be broken. (Almost all skip passes are dumb.)
