“With (Eric Bledsoe)’Bled’ back, it’s given a spark to everybody,” power forward Markieff Morris said. “He’s playing his role again and starting to roll again.”
“Having Eric in is a whole other dynamic,” forward P.J. Tucker said. “He’s so good on the ball that the weak side doesn’t have to help as much, so it’s a lot of one-on-one defense and pull over on pick-and-rolls.”
Bledsoe’s presence has allowed Goran Dragic to move off the ball and take less of the burden of playmaking and defending. Dragic’s body was beginning to feel the grind of a long season that followed the European Championship.
“He’s a big burst of energy,” guard Gerald Green said. “He’s something that the defenses can’t guard or defend.”
