1-3-1? I was thinking more like 2-1-2, or maybe 2-2-1. We have such a unique talent in Camara, conventional presses haven't been designed with someone like him in mind. We don't need 3 at mid-court to take advantage... Just need someone else to cover up the secondary ball handler. Once Clingan improves his bounce and agility (so he doesn't foul whenever someone goes around him instead of trying to shoot over him), he'll be the perfect deterrent as the man anchoring the press.
I 1000% agree. Kawhi and TD are also not very charismatic personalities. Shae has shown flashed and he will breakthrough when Ant and JG are traded
And/or Billups is fired. One way coaches are different from each other is how they interact with their players. The interaction I see with Billups and Sharpe is Billups continually playing Sharpe on the bench. Sharpe is clearly not a priority for Billups, winning meaningless games is. To begin the 2023-24 season, Billups went with a starting lineup of Ayton, rookie Scoot Henderson, Anfernee Simons, Jerami Grant, and Matisse Thybulle. He should have been fired right at that point. If Billups cannot find a way to get Sharpe playing with the starters, the Blazers need to look for someone else.
