So Felton and Turner are lockdown defenders?

With perimeter defenders especially in small sample sizes, these numbers are more dependent on the ebbs and flows of the shooter they are guarding. As the number 1 big in this category, it is pretty damn impressive. Generally speaking, bigs don't get too hot or cold from inside the lane. Which means Drummond played some great defense.

Likewise, he did a very good job when he was switching onto guys like Lebron and Shumpert, something which he should be good at in theory due to his lateral quickness.

I was kidding, Dre played a very good defensive serie

He was definitely a difference maker and if it wasn't for the hacking I think we would have won a couple games. It was a night and day difference with him off the floor.
