In the afterglow of Monday's In-Season Tournament win over the Boston Celtics, Rick Carlisle credited his staff for making a key defensive change at halftime, which he said the players had never executed before. As such, after breaking down how Tyrese Haliburton shined in turning off the lights, this is an attempt to solve the mystery of the pick-and-roll adjustment for a team that also had to adapt on defense. Let's investigate!

"Caitlin Confidential" where you continue to decode the coaches vague comments should absolutely be a recurring series.

They both have their own unique challenges, haha. Glad you're liking the pivot to video.

Not sure if these are easier/harder to make than articles, but I feel like this video is easier to follow than an article, personally. But both are great!
Caitlin Cooper
Hahah, Glad I was able to deliver.

My first thought when I heard Rick mention this was “I hope Caitlin explains whatever this adjustment was.” Lo and behold! Thank you!
iPacers Derek Kramer
Yes! As soon as Rick said this last night I was looking forward to you pointing out what the adjustment was.
Caitlin Cooper
Thanks for letting me know! Somehow the uncut version ended up getting uploaded. It's fixed now and should be more watchable.

Thank you for investigating that Carlisle comment! I was definitely curious. 🕵️♀️

I liked the break down, but I think you left in some spots where you were planning to edit. Still totally understandable and well articulated, just a couple of stop and repeats.
