Here, less than a minute into the game, we see our first example. Kyrie is already at a terrible angle on Deron Williams. He needs to be spaced more between him and the basket. Kris Humphries is setting up for a back pick here, and it’s going to lead to a wide open layup.
Thompson didn't do Kyrie any favors here, as he's sitting in no man's land, and a Kris Humphries jump shot would certainly be a better alternative than a D-Will layup. But it was the bad angle to start the play that set all this up. Two points for Brooklyn.
