McCants: The old model was the guard who could replicate the Dooku pick-and-roll with KD. Now this tactic is gone.

Recently, former NBA player McCants talked about the Rockets on Arenas' show "The Arena".
Talking about the prospects of the Rockets in the new season, he said: "I can't say yet. Just to analyze it now, in order to introduce Durant, they lost Brooks, Jaylen Green and Whittemore. I used to think that VanVleet would have been the key figure to reproduce the Warriors' classic tactics-that is, the tactics of the point guard and Durant. Curry and Durant's pick-and-roll cooperation, how to defend? Switch defense? No matter what defensive strategy is adopted, there will always be someone who can complete it. Score. VanVleet has the ability to consistently hit such shots, and his shooting percentage is very high. Losing him means that this strategy will be difficult to implement. "
" As a result, the team has to rely on a group of players who are good at attacking the basket and breaking through, and the entire game plan will also change as a result. Originally, it was with VanVleet that the team could flexibly adjust its offensive methods in pick-and-roll, pick-and-cut, misplaced pick-and-roll and other tactics. Now, it's up to Amen to pick and roll with Durant. "
