Pace Postgame

Love Freeman... he needs to play inside out and stop taking threes unless it's within the flow of the offense. He can dominate on the pick and roll and every single play should start with him setting a pick for the guy bringing the ball up the court. They should also let him live in the high post against zone teams like teams did to us for decades.

We need to do away with the weave where he gets the ball at the 7 o'clock at the 3 point line. He surprisngly fumbled the ball there or made a bad play after getting it there multiple times. His sweet spot seems to be more at 3 o'clock next to the FT line.
I agree, they are wasting Freeman's inside game with the way they are deploying him now. He could be a threat to score and get assists from the post, but they have him almost exclusively facing the basket.

While I don't think he's necessarily a me-first player, it looks like Donnie is given autonomy to go by his own feel on the offensive end and so part of that (I think) is what he *wants* to be offensively and what he wants scouts to see offensively. And, yes, most coaches would reign that in for the betterment of the team.
