LB should have asked if Starbury defends any better than marbury after Brevin Knight beat him off the dribble the other night all night long and brevin Knight can't shoot so he should have been playing off him. When they showed halftime highlites every charlotte highlite began with Knight beeting Marbury and then he has the balls to talk smak after the game. This guy must go.
Do you guys understand the game...The rules were changed so you can't hand check the player on the perimeter anymore...It was designed to give the perimeter player the advantage so the defnder can't slow you down....You also see nightly that Steph blows by people....All across the NBA, players are getting blown by, it's the game....
when players like Milt Palacio, Tyronn Lue & Mo Williams are regularly blowing by your starting "star" PG for easy layups, then there's a problem w/the perimeter defense, not the rules.
I think we should also acknowledge the problem of no shotblocker to swat them when they do.
And VERY little defensive switching by the forwards.
Every good basketball team needs one on one defenders. It is crucial for a team defense's success. Therefore, it's never about a shotblocker cleaning up the garbage after the guards always get blown by. But if you have good defenders AND that good shotblocker, then the team defense directs any driving players towards that shotblocker, while everyone rotates to the proper spots. But when all your guards suck on defense and get regularly blown by, your shotblocker is going to foul out.
