This. Right now KP looks completly lost when he is getting doubled. Most of the time he rushes the shot/pass. Not a suprise. A lot of great players really struggled in similar situations. Olajuwon, Malone, Dirk or recently Embiid. All started of as really bad passers and improved over their career. That´s the next step for him on offense. Learn how to take advantage of mismatches. Learn how to deal with double teams. That´s what Embiid did over the last two seasons. That´s what turned an all star caliber big into a legit top 3 MVP contender.
