Love this spot for Scottie in a pivotal Game 4. Just had 11 assists on 15 potentials vs the Cavaliers as the move to put Jamal Shead on the bench really benefitted his passing output.
With the Raptors winning last game, Shead should be off the bench again and that leaves Scottie as the primary ballhandler with the starters. The Cavaliers also want to focus more on slowing him down after two big games with Don/Mobley stating:
"We got to do a better job making him feel uncomfortable, not letting him get to his spots, make him think about what he wants to do."
Think we may see more pressure on Scottie tonight, especially with backside help and that'll only further lead to more potentials. With Quickley out this season, he's over in 9/13 with 28+ minutes.
Love the spot, love the opportunity, and of course, can expect huge minutes.
