It forces your perimeter guys into being spot up shooters.

So I'm not sure he will get many of those opportunities next year either if Monroe/Drummond are still inside together. Against OKC it wasn't a problem because they don't really play a paint packing defense. They play more of a gambling perimeter defense, trusting Ibaka/Perkins can protect the paint themselves. Which in turn gives the opposing offense's perimeter guys more room to operate. That isn't the case against most teams though. Which is another reason a stretch 4 would be better, as it would not only allow more room for Drummond inside, but also more room for our guards to create their own shots too.

Its cute how you almost sound like you actually believe what you say about OKC's defensive philosophy.

Goldtop acting like he watches OKC all year. I bet he thinks Brooks is some elite coach too.

Basically. It wreaks of "let me just say anything like I know what I'm talking about, but if I say it in a factual matter of fact way, it'll support my point".
