I almost typed Brandon Jennings, but then I saw the 'quality' part

When I originally typed it I didn't have the word "quality" in there, but then I remembered Jennings, so I felt the need to add in "quality".

I meant like the many possessions where he isn't serious about staying with his man. Not that he doesn't have the physical gifts to be a great defender.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

Another plus game for Cardinal. Will definitely be a benefit to the team having him in the rotation all year long with a healthy AL and Love.

You definitely can not underestimate the value of setting great screens and understanding the game on offense. Still has the hustle and effort to be an effective defender in this league.
