Quin Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 08:04 AM) Blocks are a terrible way to measure defense. Getting beat to the basket and swating someone from behind doesn't make you a good defender. Yes, but that seems to be why LeBron is regarded as a godly defender, because of his highlight blocks.

And I don't agree with that all. There are blocks you can make that make you a good defensive player, but getting your ankles broken, and then blocking a shot on the recovery doesn't make you a good defender. It means you can't keep someone in front of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one noticed how we stopped complaining about how bad our defense at the guard spots was sometime around the turn of the year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think he has regressed defensively? I don't think that at all. He isn't great by any stretch, but he is better for sure IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every guard and their grandmother was torching him in the first half, and suddenly in January I stopped complaining about our guard defense.

I though you were saying he was a guy who could block shots, and now he was a guy who couldn't keep someone in front of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nice thing is that I know he'll put all the effort necessary to become good at d. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has gotten a lot better at keeping guys in front of him, he just needs to work on over/under/through the screens. Either that or Thibs has to adjust with the big man doing more than just showing on the backside of the screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Out of curiosity, did anyone else scream at the top of their lungs at boozer when he ran to give a screen for korver as drose was getting double teamed at mid court? God he is dumb. I like his attitude though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
