The one thing I actually really dislike about this clip is the defense on the three point shooters in the corner.
No basketball game has done this right yet. The games seemed coded to have a player defend their guy or double. That's it. No one wants to guard the ball handler.
Why are the defenders not collapsing in toward the paint with Nash driving?
Because this doesn't happen, the corner three is nearly non existent. Nash doesn't have any option but to shoot the floater.
In real life, every defender collapses in and Nash has the option to look for a shooter in the corner.
It's kinda how the NBA works now, you know? Corner threes are a major part of offenses. No basketball game has covered this. Frustrating.
