You can add Rudy Gobert to that list as well haha! Although, Rudy has proven to be a much more dominant player IRL than Drummond these days, so this type of performance isn't much of a surprise.

Scuzz is right.
Also running freelance sets and getting people open off of natural cuts and screens is good.
Also, consider mixing up your P&R game:
- If you run it from the corner, you'll notice that sometimes the defense sags off for an open shot
- If you run it from deep (the timeline) after telling your offense to spread out and iso, you get more time for your ballhandler to get up a head of steam and gives you more space for making decisions.
- If you run it from closer to the three point line, you may have better luck with pick and pop
- If you run it inside the three point arc, you may be a crazy person, but who knows what things will open up

The three games that I played today I ran plays pretty much all game long. I very rarely run ISO (since I'm so bad with the dribble moves) and infrequently would just call for a straight PnR as well.
Freelance is definitely something I should look into. At the very least, it seems like it would be hugely beneficial to my bench unit to just play a system rather than run a play for a specific player.
I usually run a lot of my PnR from above the break, but I should call for ISO first to get more of a spread look to give my ball handler some extra space. Pick and pop would be great, just need to run it with a guy who can shoot. I think I may need to dust off Mike Muscala and give him a try...
Interesting that running it from the corner the defense tends to sag. Regardless, we don't have many shooters so that doesn't quite help us. But, if I could ever get his jumper right, Tre Mann would be an interesting option to run it with to get his three-point shooting going.
Inside the arc?!? Maybe I need to get crazy with it!
