Get the ball in your best play-maker's hands to initiate the offense. I know Scott has seen what Clarkson can do as a primary ball-handler so he's familiar with him but his athleticism and ability would allow for him to be really effective against rotations and as a secondary play-maker. Lou is great with the 2nd unit but again, as you alluded to, he's not trying to create for anyone else. None of what we did last night was conducive to D'Angelo's strengths and it doesn't make much sense to me....Russell is going to have a learning curve but he has some great tools, I wish we would allow him to sharpen them by playing on the ball.
