Re: zone defense, some new offense
Rajon said kemba is the quickest player he has ever faced. And kemba will probably be a better defender than DJ.
The curse of Higgins!

When would Rondo have faced Kemba?

Maybe it was the LB offense, but DJ never has looked like a pure point to me. Hated actually watching in games last year as he brought the ball up and then gave it to Jax or Diaw to actually run things. Once he did that DJ was mostly running around screens looking to shoot.
He can pass, but we've never really seen him run the show.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Re: zone defense, some new offense
^His biggest strength is his shooting yes, but he's capable of running an NBA offense. It just happened that he was a) on a team that had a guy (Jack) who required a high usage to be most effective and b) on a team that didn't have any outside shooters which forced him into that role a bit.
Either way, he's still a better pure point than Kemba is.

That's been LB and partly Jax being a ball dominant player in general, he needs the ball.

I got the perfact solution to this debate. Let's just keep both until one of them demands a trade. By that time we will know who is better.
