Austin Rivers believes the Houston Rockets will need more ball movement and less isolation in order to be successful in the playoffs.
The guard of the Rockets said moving the ball will be the most important thing for the team in the postseason.
“No, we got to have ball movement. Especially in the playoffs, the floor shrinks, fouls don’t get called as much, the game changes, they’re allowed to be more physical. There’s not going to be fans there to influence refs. So there’s no antics.
It’s going to be very physical game where you just can hear players and refs talking. I think because of that, we really have to continue to do what we do. You know, we have to move the ball and play at a high speed,” Rivers told Kelly Iko of The Athletic.
