“Tyrese is easy to play with. He wants to give the ball away so badly. But at the same time, he's such a threat offensively that he draws a ton of attention. It allows others to have openings. They (Tyrese Haliburton and Pascal Siakam) found a way to play together. It's awesome. Like Tyrese and Myles (Turner). These two are the best pick-and-roll duo in the league. I think so but don't quote me! »
Obi Toppin obviously doesn't want to annoy fans of Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic but he's having fun alongside Tyrese Haliburton And Myles Turnerwhich make his life easier.
“Simply because they want to involve everyone” details the former Knick on what makes his comrades the best pick-and-roll duo in the league. “They don’t try to do everything on their own. They understand the attention they generate. They let other guys have the ball to get free. It helps them a lot.”
And if we look at the stats, Obi Toppin's opinion is justified. With his 1.06 points per possession on the pick-and-roll, over 494 possessions since the start of the season, Tyrese Haliburton is one of the most efficient ball carriers in these sequences, while Myles Turner is definitely the most efficient player out of pick-and-roll, among the players most fond of the exercise, with 1.39 points per possession, out of 290 occurrences.
And as the pivot is the one who receives the most caviars (189) from the leader since the start of the season, it is good that the Haliburton/Turner pick-and-roll is the basis of the Pacers' game. And therefore at the center of the second best attack in the league, with 120 points scored on 100 possessions since the start of the season.
