Barnes starts at the four then moves to the one and the five in interchangeable lineups.
“Scottie starts at four, but then he moves to one, then he becomes a five, and Kawhi is three, but a different lineup, he becomes a four. It's very interchangeable.”
Toronto is deliberately funneling the ball to Kawhi so teammates learn where he wants to be.
“Intentionally we're focusing right now more to get, get, get a ball to him so other guys can get used to him, where, where he needs to be on the board, what he's going to be doing, how he's going to be finding his teammates.”
Kawhi looked really good in another practice with contact and 5-on-5 work.
“Kawhi looked really good today. This was another great practice with us. A lot of contact, a lot of life, 5-on-5.”
Kawhi went through live 5-on-5 contact and looked great feeling out his teammates.
“We did a lot of contact, a lot of live 5-on-5. He did a great job of going out there and trying to feel out his teammates, when to attack, when to pass. I thought he was great today.”
Kawhi has not played a game with his new teammates and needs time and patience to fit.
“he still did not play one game with those guys. He missed a lot of time this summer in an open gym... there's gonna be some growing for sure and all of us we gotta be patient. It's gonna take time.”
