The rest of the rotation cannot even attack a close out. Most of the time they won’t even floor the ball and when they do it’s a circus. The only way to involve the others is catch and shoot threes…which requires Luka and JB to do most all of the work.They can do more than stand around and wait for the pass, very much like GSW do. More motion shows more cracks, which Luka can exploit in a number of ways. It’s for sure more than RC and Kidd have asked them to do, but standing on the 3 point line so Luka and JB has a place to drive is not working. Also, it gives the defense plenty of rest so they have energy to do what they do on offense.
Compare that to the Warriors who typically have at least 4 guys on the court that can competently attack a close out. That allows you to move the ball and bodies because when the defense shows a crack you have guys that can attack it.
Stationary 3 point shooters can’t be more involved in the offense than they already are.
