To be honest, Will isn't a great passer and looks to penetrate first. Beyond that, Papa isn't really a face up, where folks have to honor his foul line extended jumper, so pick and pop doesn't work. If we hit Dia on the roll, he'd still get the ball in space, probably about 15 ft or so from the rack, b/c we set it so high. That's not a great situation for his skill set. That said, a kid like Vilde/Smith will make people honor the pop, which could open the roll. Now we just need a true PG, b/c this offense will really work w/pass first kids and shooters
