Grant had a cold start this year (like half the league after the lockout) but the man is without a doubt our best defender. He doesnt stretch the floor too much I agree because he isnt a consistant threat from 3 but he hits 3s when needed and always fills the lanes on fast breaks and knows how to finish and draw the foul. Honestly I think Grant has been playing great the past couple of weeks really playing nice all around games - im not sure why you are hanging this on him.
If you dont watch the games and just look at points scored and plus minus then yes I agree he looks alot worse than he really is. But as any fan knows the stats only tell half the story.
Analytics tells much more than 50% of the story. There's a reason NBA teams pay people lots of money to forecast results on paper.
