Now we see what Brett loves: all offense zero defense. So if you were wondering if Brett cares about defense, now you have the answer.
Great takes since 2024-04-20

To be fair he didn't have many options right now.

Tobias, to date, has never shown to be good on defense. At this point, it should be apparent that he isn't capable of that.

If only Elton had factored that in during trade talks... man, he got worked by The Logo.

I like him on defense. He has been consistently one of our guys who challenges the most shots per game for our team, specially around the rim. His DRtg is just hurt for the fact that he rarely plays with Biid, outside of the starting unit.

He’s far from DPOY material. But he makes the right plays on defense.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Tobias has been a bad defender his whole career. And he was bad defensively as a prospect coming out of Tennessee, too.

Him being 6'9" 230+ and reasonably athletic just gives a false impression that he's capable of defending. His instincts are terrible. He's basically just as bad as Redick, defensively. Same thing with Mike Scott.

Is that the 1st 3 in Monroe's career he hit tonight?

Can we sign Greg Monroe to a non-guaranteed deal?
