Maybe years ago he was really good. And don't get me started on offense. That shooting form is bonkers and he doesn't finish well either.
Again, I said it in the last game thread, is it really that hard to find a Christian Wood type player to backup Isaac? Instead we have to sign trash veterans who aren't as good as they once were (and they were never that good to begin with...).
I woudnt even say he is overrated on defense. He is a good 1 on 1 defender, like Hachimura probably still got nightmares trying to score against him, but he doesnt have much impact on team defense & defense in general. Isaac or MCW just wreck havoc & defend much more space & disrupt the whole offense, not only there own matchup.
His offense is really comical bad. I think we have the 2 worst finishers at the rim in him & MCW on the same team, at the same time.
I would say for what he was billed to be on defense that he’s overrated. Like you said, he’s a non impact 1on1 defender. Same reason I think AG is overrated on defense (AG with his gifts should be MCW or Isaac level defense)

It’s sad that he actually isn’t crazy overpaid. This the deal an average bench player gets theses days

Offensively he has sucked, he isn't used to not having 2 25ppg scorers on the team.
