If you're wondering why Whiteside isn't getting touches:
He has ZERO energy on this play. Barely even walking to set his screens. He completely misses one on Redick to spring Tyler loose.
A better screen results in Embiid needing to help and an open lane for a Whiteside lob.
Keep watching.
JJ bails TJ out, and they reset. This time, Whiteside sets a better screen for JRich, but does that thing where he crab walks on the roll. How is anyone supposed to lob it up to him?
