Trae and Jumani and Westbrook and Adams

How near impossible is it to cover Russell Westbrook and Steven Adams on the pick & roll? With Melo and PG13 on the wings the defense can't cheat and they're free to slam it literally dozens of times in the paint.

I see the same for OU. If they try to play Trae underneath the pick then he buries a three. If they chase him over it then he turns that corner and Jumani dives to the basket for the jam. Same on the switch given Trae's passing ability and Jumani's athleticism. Combine that with a sharpshooting old Manek on the wing and you have a near impossible to contain group of scorers.

Coach has done good. This group is very exciting.

Yep. The potential for this team during Trae's sophomore season is very high. The current season is a preview of coming attractions. It will be fun to watch how this group comes together and develops.
