There’s been hype surrounding head coach Kenny Atkinson’s new offense during the offseason and training camp. Under Atkinson, the Cavs are expected to utilize a motion-based offense that wants to play with pace and get up three-pointers. There’s also an emphasis on moving the ball and empowering his players to make the right reads. The idea under Atkinson is to play with flow and pace and create advantages that make the players on the floor effective. This system will empower players to grow and develop, honing skills that could eventually become strengths. But for as much talk as there was about it, it’s hard to mentally visualize it without viewing it. Thankfully, Cavs veteran forward Georges Niang gave great insight into how Cleveland will play under Atkinson.
