It would need to be a big with amazing passing skills, but probably who also would tend to draw double-teams to open passing lanes. I wonder if they envisioned this for KP ... but if so, it sure hasn't worked out yet.
Yeah. I agree.
I thought KP showed some potential of this during his first year here. He still didn't look very natural doing it but I had some hope he could at least show some progress like Dirk did. I never thought Dirk was great at this either.
Although, last year I can't remember hardly any passes like this from KP. He very rarely touched the ball inside the three point line and had guys moving off him. Maybe this is something we will see them force feed him? I could see this as an easy way to gain KP trust by telling him we are going to get you the ball here and run motion off you. I thought some of the KP frustration last year is he would go multiple possessions without ever touching the ball.
