  • Stealing Sets: Spurs Edition

    Although the Pelicans lacked any consistent shot-creator last year, they still managed to finish tied for 15th in offensive efficiency. Ryan Anderson’s ability to stretch the floor and Davis’s ability to crash the rim were a large part of this, but so was Monty Williams’ play-calling. Despite being known as a defensive-minded coach, Williams was […]
