Message: [QUOTE="SUFan44, post: 1645446, member: 39"] This is where we miss having a true point guard. Most PG's that have used ball screens or run pick-and-rolls throughout their careers are taught to split the hedge up the middle if there's a gap. There has been an enormous opportunity for Gbinije to split the middle on a number of screens, but his handle isn't good enough and he's not used to doing it, so he doesn't try it and instead "settles" for going wide around the hedge. He's also not quick enough to accelerate around the hedge, therefore his defender has enough time to recover and get in front. If G doesn't split, then Roberson needs to provide more when he flashes opposite on the screens. He needs to be more aggressive from start to finish. He has shown capable. He really is an enigma sometimes... [/QUOTE]
