I'm just wondering who people think is a good defender? If you think Jak is average and Mamu is supposedly not a "real" back-up C, how are we the 4th best D in the league with below average defense at the C position which is supposedly the most important spot?
Look at the data lol. Our best defensive line ups haven’t been coming from our starting 5.
As for the reason why most rational people want traditional back up 7 footer? It’s not purely for defensive reasons lmao. It’s because we’ve had the worst OFFENCE in the league in the last 2 weeks. Our offence can’t function without legitimate screening from our bigs. 2nd chance points from offensive rebounding, etc.
The data also shows Gradey is one of our best defenders, we can use it to fit whatever narrative we want.
Well that’s why I’m scoffing at your take that our starting 5 are all good defenders lol.
IQ is not a good defender. RJ is not a good defender, BI is not a good defender.
They show effort though and can play adequate team defence. That’s about it lol.
