I wonder how many times Pearson will go into motion and fake getting the handoff before they give it to him? It's kind of pointless if 100% of the time he's just a decoy.
When I played soccer in HS, our team excessively over valued the assist to the goal. We would celebrate with the guy that got the assist because we were weird. Although important to give the assist, it's not the glorified part of the game.
I feel like flipping field position is similar for Jones. Lol
