His center of gravity is just so insanely high that while we spend so much time talking about how remarkable his balance is for someone who's 7'5", 7'6",

it's still not great compared to like carl anthony towns who has incredible balance on the post up and it allows him to be so fluid out of the post and so they're going to have to find some sort of thing technique wise for him and overall offense wise to get him the ball in ways that he can catch with more power in his base that allows him to get into the post-up actions quicker and more efficiently because right now a lot of the time when he catches the ball

Most of the effort is about getting him reoriented and then he still finds his way.

But then going to the different things like that Porzingis shot, you know, the Embiid shot, getting to a hook shot, he can just go straight to.

Or for him, he likes to do things two-handed mostly.

So having just like a way to turn into a very high jump shot, like a Bill Walton kind of thing.

Those are all things that you just didn't see him comfortably going to those right away.

when he got the ball.

And so they're just going to, he's going to need to drill those out this summer.

And so my understanding is they're going to try to work with some more NBA players, of course, like former players, but also just work with his own team about how can we drill in these mid post and these high post shots so that they're automatic for him.

No, he just kind of tried to suplex him, but when he was too big, it just wasn't possible.

The pick and roll is going back to the pick and roll.

What, what hurt them in the pick and roll.

And this was a playoffs thing, but particularly with New York, it was two things.

One,

Teams were able to chip him on his roles in the postseason, but especially in the finals where they could just punch him in the ribs as he's rolling.

And so he just can't get those free releases on roles in the same way.

But then really the issue is that the Spurs didn't have the threat of a dangerous pull-up shooter coming over the top around the screens that forced the coverage to stop ball first before stopping Victor.

And so usually Spurs,

The Knicks weren't worried about Fox launching into a three or Castle launching into a three off the dribble.
