All this talk about mid-range jump shots make me laugh because it’s super simple… If you have a player who shots it at a high clip, encourage them to take them. If you have a player who doesn’t, don’t let him shoot them… Layups are only good shots to someone who can finish. Open threes are only good shots to someone who can make them. Free throws are only effective if you can step up and knock them down. Come on people.

I'm sorry, but being unable to stop 34 year-old CJ McCollum in the playoffs means your defense isn't very good.
