Most of it from this recent run. His head's not in the game defensively, but it's not all his fault.

Oh, so now his help defense sucks. Blame JV for everything. How about the 2 Raptors on those pick and roll coverage? Where is the blame on them? When it's JV on those pick and rolls, where is the help defense for him?

even if it is frustration, he physically still doesn't look right when he tries to run. So little forward momentum. Stuck in mud.

Could be trying to avoid early foul trouble by not helping as aggressively. He has two already.

EDIT: See? No perimeter guys really giving our bigs a chance.

Dude.

I don't blame JV for everything. Only when I see it's actually something he made a mistake on. You should know this by now. I'm one of his biggest supporters but I call it like I see it.

JV's first benching this game was wrong, because it was Amir who made the mistake that led to the offensive rebound putback. Casey assumed it was JV and gave him a quick hook.

DD watches Wiggins drive by, JV forced to foul and that means he doesn't want to play?
