One of the memorable anecdotes to come out of Clippers training camp was Ty Lue pulling Luke Kennard after he failed to take an open shot, and then making a point to tell the team what exactly Kennard did wrong.
Lue did that to remind Kennard that he has to be more aggressive in hunting his shot; if a good look is available, he needs to take it. It’s a conversation that dates back to last season, and it’s a topic that is newly relevant for Clippers other than Kennard. The second-year Clipper may have gotten more comfortable attacking quickly — 83 percent of his shots this season have come after one dribble or less — but over-dribbling is a phenomenon that has now afflicted his teammates.
