[The Athletic] How the Bucks blew up the Harden/Embiid pick & roll/pop action



I thought this was a really good read with clips that showed exactly what was happening & how:

Obviously relevant for tomorrow night’s game, and most likely for the playoffs as well.

    These are typical game to game adjustments in the playoffs. It’s a balance of showing your havd to early (the Bucks showing 76ers exactly how they intend to guard in thr playoffs) and getting some reps in during the regular season to see the result. I’d prefer the celts are a bit more low key in a regular season game….its why last year games like against the Nets the Celts can steal a win or two up front, since they guarded Kyrie/Durant differently in the playoffs then in rhe regular season.
