That Clippers squad is filled with me-first, ball stopping Iso-scorers, with zero playmaking. They have zero size in the frontcourt have the worst defensive backcourt in the competition and are relying on 2nd year Capela turning into Bill Russell to carry the defense.
Knicksfan20 lives in a world where Wiggins has lived up to his potential as an elite defender, when in reality, he looks lost defensively, has zero bbiq on that side of the ball and has been one of the worst defenders in basketball this season. Does that mean he cant be a plus defender in the future? Absolutely not. Does that mean he no longer has potential as a plus defender? Absolutely not. But we're dealing in the right now...not the right what could be.
thank you.
To be fair, I didn't know this was a 1 year BAT until the end of the 3rd round (after I picked Kyrie/Wiggins/Capela to be my starting 3 for the now and future). Also you make it seem like I have Jamal Crawford at every position.
I don't think I have a team full of me first ball stoppers. I have 3 players in my starting lineup who can score 1 on 1. But 2 are better off the ball as slashers. Kyrie has the ball in his hand most of the time with Gay/Wiggins moving off the ball. Then If Wiggins/Gay has the ball..Kyrie open for 3.
Crawford is getting limited minutes/0 minutes when I have Gay on my team. I have Sessions getting all the PG minutes over JC. JC only plays when Gay gets injured.
Beasley has not been a ball stopper at all in Mil. Hes been very good and professional in his role. Very efficient as well.
Frye is a shooter. Not a ball stopper.
Crawford was obtained for his ability to score and make plays off the bench.
Holiday is not a ball stopper. Good defender/shooter and can create for himself.
So I disagree with my placement, but at least I have a response. My team's gameplan is to play uptempo and put up a lot of shots. Best team in the league this year is arguably the Houston Rockets and they don't play much defense at all and Harden is a worse defender then anybody I have on my team.
If you look at every team in the BAT...Not many teams even have a 2nd go to scorer. Or a 2nd player to create offense for themselves. In a league where injuries happen, not many teams seemed to have built/prepared a team to make up for other players if said players were to go down. I have depth at every position.
Just pay BR to run the Sim again. Mecca damn you!!!!!
