Was Sengun Really Getting “Targeted”?
from BBALL BREAKDOWN Podcast Hosted by CLNS Media Network
Coach Nick and Combo start this one with Harden looking completely at home in Cleveland and what that actually means once the honeymoon phase ends. But the real meat of the show is the Sengun debate. After reporter says he’s being hunted, head coach Ime Udoka gives a quote that goes viral. So Coach Nick went back and watched tons of defensive possessions, raising the questions: What does “targeted” even mean? Was it actually happening or are we reacting to body language and a soundbite? From there it turns into a bigger conversation about how the game gets covered now and whether you need to truly understand what you’re watching. Of course Kobe Bryant comes up when talking about shot selection, European development, and why reading the game still separates players who win from players who just score.
