We should put Dudley in so he can check Jason Smith again.

They are draped on Booker. Plus Gortat is setting very good screens :(

Mike James is intent on shooting us out of this game I see.

Tyson Chandler provides absolutely zero help defense when his man is the screener. Get him the hell off the court already.

Effort aside... we have some really, really fundamentally bad defenders.

Gortat is taking Booker completely out and Tyson isn't stepping up. Nothing Book can do.

Watch everyone blame Booker for getting picked twice and going over the screen because Beal can shoot while Tyson doesn't come up to cover, allowing wide open shots!!! That will be Booker doesn't play D or got killed by Beal....

Tyson is too proud to hedge a ball screen and get blown by and scored on.

Book's technique defensively is really bad too though.. really inefficient strides and slow first step.
