Oh, I do. I remember it pretty well. He did a whole hour on the difference between adding Thompson as a "corner shooter only" in a spread pick and roll offense vs. adding him for the purpose of integrating more movement and using 5-out dribble handoff concepts with Lively as a hub near the break (which they seem to be trying to do pretty aggressively, btw).
His initial video (when he was hoping Thompson would be a Laker still - that's his team) was as you describe, but there were a few follow ups where he had thought about it more, and those were very much focused on the "if/then" aspects of what the Thompson addition might mean.
