Some well deserved love from Sport Illustrated, or at least one of their writers.

okay, now I want to see following:

1) with Gobert on the floor I want to see more organised, structured defense: MCD, DLo and Ant icing PnRs, tunneling ballhandlers to Gobert

2) we need to master drop scheme, be more methodical but at the same time I want us to execute aggressive double-team with MCD swarming opponent player with the ball

3) I want to see how Towns-Anderson-TP lineup will execute high wall this year. I also want to see a Towns-Anderson-TP-Dozier-Edwards lineup playing active defense with more switching

I thought everyone played exceptionally well except Rivers. He looks completely spent. McG, Nowell and Forbes will make it tough for Austin to see the court.

Rivers looked solid in defense.
