When teams close out on them, they are often unable to make defenses pay. Rondo can though. Occasionally, you get flashes from Jrue. But not enough.
We need playmakers. Guys that defenses must take seriously as ball handlers or get burned with layups and dunks. But also skilled and heads up enough to make a decent kick out pass.
It's the one thing I miss from Tyreke. He was tunnel visioned, but the guy threatened teams enough to get them to rotate when he drove the lane.
