Around SBN: Dissecting Nick Diaz's Positive Drug Test

The Hawk Set - with video

 

Here's a Hawk set, very similar to the one the Wizards ran in Summer League for Nick Young.

 

 

 

 

Now the same play  in an actual game situation. Detroit vs. Boston.

 

 

Nick Young and Randy Foye are absolutely going to explode this year, if they run this play for them..... DeShawn Stevenson, not so much.

Especially Young

I kind of question Foye’s ability to get off clean looks from mid range due to his height. Part of what’s so intriguing to me about Da Boi Nicky Barnes is that he elevates so well on his jumper that he almost never has his shot blocked.

Foye is listed as 6’4". Young at 6’6".

Foye is 6' 2.25"

6’3" in shoes, 6’6" wingspan, and 38" vertical

Nick Young is 6’5" (6’ 6.75" in shoes) with a 7’0" wingspan, and 40.5" vertical

Young can get his shot off……..

So I question Foye's ability to get his shot off as well....

Except, we’ve been told by the Minnesota folks that Foye has no problem getting his shot off , either in a catch-and-shoot or coming off a screen…. And DraftExpress says “He’s also very good coming off screens for the catch and shoot.”

So, I guess we'll just have to wait and see

I guess he’ll have to wear shoes then so he can get his shot off.

Maybe we can all chip in and buy Randy a pair of platform sneakers….
