Bogdanovic: McMillan knows what he’s doing. I trust him.

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic talks with Chris Kirschner of The Athletic about the differences between Lloyd Pierce and Nate McMillan.

“They’re using me differently, as you can see during the games. We have more plays running. Nate is trying to get everyone involved. With Lloyd it was kind of more of a free game. He was running stuff with lots of freedom. Nate is a little bit old school and more experienced, and he knows what can get us to the next level. He doesn’t want any selfish game. He told us he wanted more ball movement and how we’re all pros and how we didn’t need to mess with the game, respect the game and let the game come to you. He told us how we all needed to be ready to compete every single night. Nate is also more experienced. He’s been in the league since he’s been a player and then went into coaching right after his playing career. He’s been in the league forever and knows what he’s doing. I trust him”.

In 14 games after the ASG break, Bogdanovic is producing 14 points and 3.4 assist, shooting 47% from the field and 41% from long range.
