lucas shrugged his shoulders, "okay, sure, well help whoever," nathan comes into the office, "you wanted to see me?" coach nods his head, "i did,"
thomas and lucas both furrowed their eyebrows, "with thomas and lucas on the injured list, you're going to see a lot more double teams," thomas and lucas looked at each other, "now thomas and lucas is damn good at creating space for open shots,"
"i want you three to work together,"
nathan looked at coach durham, "there's nothing they can teach me about my game or anything else," coach looked at nathan, "they can teach you to listen when i tell you to do something,"
