What coaches and players say about roles, minutes, gameplans and development.
Thunder camp has stressed getting out fast and pushing the ball ahead with unselfish play.
โit comes back to, you know, pretty much our principles and what we've been working on in training camp is, you know, getting out fast and making outlets, getting the ball up ahead. And I think we all play unselfish. We all want to see a person win and succeed.โ
McCain says others bringing the ball up saves Shai's energy and gets him to his spots quicker in the half court.
โfor him, he's always guarded by the best player, and so when he has to take the ball up, he's getting tired. He's playing a lot of minutes, so having someone to relieve that pressure off of him, bringing the ball up, it allows him to use that quickness and use the stamina he has to make the move stronger, whatever it is, and get to our spots and get to our play quicker for him in the half court.โ
