Cavs head coach Kenny Atkinson is placing Cleveland’s defensive highlight immediately on Jarrett Allen, his star huge man. “Everyone knows J.A.’s subsequent step is to have the ability to guard 5 out, Atkinson stated. “I feel it’s a problem. However he’s greater than succesful together with his versatility. I’ll say this, they apply that, however we even have two bigs offensively, in order that they’re going to have to protect us too, proper? It’s a tough guard for us. “However I feel once we play these two bigs along with our offensive rebounding, our decide and roll offense with J.A., they’re going to have to protect him. So it would look like an obstacle for us on one finish. It could possibly be a bonus for us on the opposite [hand].” -via Clutch Factors / Might 2, 2025
