Posting up from the block against potentially smaller guys, sure. Give it a shot to draw fouls. But when he comes to the elbow and tries to seal off his man, I actually don't understand the set at all. Forget about the fact it's often a real struggle to get the ball to him in a consistent location, I don't understand what our desired outcome is. The guy who struggles finishing and dribbling is now in a position where he has to dribble to the basket to try to finish? It ends up being a 1 on 1 situation, head down, do anything to get to the hoop and (too often) throw up a terribly low % shot. A guy I remember being very successful at this spot on the court was Wes Johnson. A big part of his success was because he was elite (college level) at mid-range shooting. Reminded me of Carmelo Anthony in that sense he could always get his jumper off when iso-d from 15ft.

Oshae in that same spot is too often a wasted possession, imo. I do however like the attempt to change up the sets we run.
