Nope, you seem to have no basketball IQ and need to go watch the replay of that play. Exum's defender is in paint waiting for any drive to the lane. A simple lob to a streaking Green who would have been behind the defense was the best choice for an easy two point. His other choices were to take the mid-range jumper with his defender sagging off, pass to Kyrie on the wing for an open three or pull the ball out to start a half court set.
Under no circumstance do you drop off that ball off to a trailer with a defender in the lane.
