Re: knight's defense?
for someone with his athleticism, he lets a lot of opponents get by him.
hes definitely got a lot to work on defensively.

Re: knight's defense?
You might wanna check the actual games out. A lot of damage was done with him on the bench or getting clipped on screens. Not to say that he never gets beat 1 on 1 but don't let the numbers fool you. Furthermore, he is still dealing with an injury that affects his ability to slide.
Dragic: 3-7, 10pts, 1 assist, 2TO
Lillard:4-18, 12 pts, 7 assist, 3TO
Jason Kidd 2-5, 6pts, 3 assist, 1TO
Kyle Lowery 6-17, 19pts, 5 assist, 2TO
Rondo 5-7, 12pts, 10 assist, 6TO (Struggled to get 10 assist. big considering it's Rondo)

Re: knight's defense?
I was going to add that most of the time Knight's man scores (if Knight is on the floor) if off pick and rolls. Either the other defender shows too strong and lets Knight's guy thru for an easy layup while Knight is being screened or the other guy shows too little and Knight's guy shoots over the top for an uncontested J while Knight is being screened.
What is Frank's system? Does he want Knight to fight thru screens, or is the other guy supposed to force him back that way and/or switch? Our p-n-r defense is terrible.
I've seen Knight fight thru screens only to have the picker remain totally wide open for an easy bucket. And when he stays with the pick, his guy abuses the other guy.
This is where Frank and his staff should be looking to fine tune. It appears as if our guys aren't sure how to defend the pick-n-roll systematically. Who does what and when???

monroe and charlie can not move laterally but maxiell is not that bad. knight is quick but he melts on the screen. its strength issue i think

Re: knight's defense?
Knight is actually one of the more solid defensive players on this team man to man. Ask Damian Lillard about Knight's defense! He only get's scored on mostly on screens. The guy's next to him Stuckey who is a terrible defender and Singler who is actually a 3 don't help him at all either!
