Jacque Vaughn PostGame Interview | Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers

Uh whether that is going to be to the big at The Rim or to a small in the corner so I really think the way seeing the game is is really impressive uh and then the effort that he’s given on the defensive end of the floor uh again a

Clip of him at at halftime uh with a great uh box out and so those things we’re going to continue to U um I don’t know promote and and glorify and because it it makes us a better team the drive and kick you’re talking about is that mainly a process of not

Having to worry about in beid they’re kind of Shand in the middle it allows it felt like they they collapsed in and allowed you guys out yeah it’s a combination I think we’ve been trying to do that uh overall as a as a group is play that way just because we have

Multiple Shooters on the floor to allow us to get you know uncontested or or open looks uh but the fact that uh Joel was not at The Rim definitely to our advantage tonight because we were able to get to the paint and uh not see him

Staring at us and so that piece of it definitely was in our favor ja I I don’t want to jinx anything but is it fair to say that Lonnie has found his Groove post injury yeah again another 30 minute night for him and uh I think overall you

Know it’s allowed us to uh get somewhat of a set rotation so uh I always think that helps guys to know when they’re coming in it’s just we we haven’t been afforded that opportunity to do that throughout the course of the year uh but I do think post injury for him he’s

Found the groove kind of that he had before the injury and sometimes it just takes a little while to to uh to to get back into the groove of it but uh he’s understanding how he can impact the game for sure with M and cam both having 20

Again I know C at 40 but with both of them just kind of being in that group together um mainly with Mel first of all are you seeing him just more confident with that three ball now because he’s T he’s not just taken a lot but he’s made

More last month and made five more tonight I I think it’s a uh a definitely a process as he’s that he’s taken in the sense of being an efficient basketball player and so you see he is uh even tonight you take the tonight how many mid-range shots did he take

Conversely had that he had been taken excuse me producing threes for us will make him more efficient I think the last two games 14 threes 12 threes before that uh and so that’s just going to be an area that he can grow in we do want him taking mid-range shots that’s part

Of who he is but if we can push that towards threes even the early ones in transition that he’s been taking that’s a been for us and then with both Cam and M having these these 20 point games last few I guess how much is that helping

Everybody else it seems like as they’re cooking together and Ben being back the offense feels like it’s just kind of at another level with the two of them kind of being on the same page now yeah Evan when they’re both scoring at a a high clip that way we can uh manufacture

Points with play calls we can do it in the floow of the game it just makes us uh harder to guard uh if you’re going to trap CT if you’re going to uh try to keep the ball ball out of one of those dudes hands then we have other options

Uh and I think they’re learning how to it’s not my turn your turn kind of thing is really playing within the flow of the offense and letting it really come to them they’re going to play the minutes and so I think they’re learning how to devise ways to uh be productive this is

Kim’s fourth straight game starting I think has he done enough during this stretch to be a part of that starting unit when everybody gets healthy uh Eric I’ll see when when we get healthy um you know we we we miss doe we miss Dron uh good to see Ben back out there tonight

Um I’m not sure what our starters unit is going to be going forward uh but right now I think uh this group has uh put us in a position to win games and uh you know always consider that as far as being the best option for our team the

Different combinations I have like the uh the sub patterns that we had who’s been out there playing with each other I think that’s that’s been a benefit to our entire group so um I’ll always diagnose and see what’s what’s best going forward when you look at the defensive improvements you guys have had

Over the last month yeah I wish we would have kept not giving up those threes at the end of the game tonight that would have helped our defensive rating that’s all I was thinking about over there is it is there some I guess minus the fourth quarter tonight is there some

Overarching factor that you think has allowed for that or is it just a bunch of like small pieces of growth like maybe cam sort of adding together yeah it’s a combination of those things it’s uh the corporate knowledge a little bit it took us half of the year to get here

In some of those areas uh and you see Improvement by guys uh I that I compliment our guys about taking things that we’ve been working on and really Implement them in the game whether it was the different coverages tonight we had on Maxi of being able to do that in

The game from practice uh then the other piece of that is I think we’ve honed in how we’re going to play defense uh we were searching to see how we were going to turn people over we’re actually turning people over more so than we were when we were searching for turning

People over so it’s interesting how you can create turnovers by being aggressive knowing what you’re doing and positionally being in the right place last one what does it just mean as a group to get a win on the road to do it here against Philadelphia team that have

Te guys time straight time yeah and our coaches mentioned that to the group uh that they hadn’t beaten us uh a few times and uh whether who’s playing or not playing uh for us we’re trying to stack uh wins together so good to get a road win okay guys
