Our defense has really tanked since the first 6 games. Through the first 6, maybe a little more, we were ranked first in defensive rating on basketball-reference.com. Today, we're ranked 16th.

How will we "be ok" if teams just keep running iso against our ancient team? Amare certainly won't help and who knows how explosive Shump will be coming off surgery.

Without effort nothing good will happen. As I mentioned in the post you quoted, its a big part of why we were able to overcome our deficiencies on both ends of the court. If they iso too much then they should throw them the occasional double team. We had the best defense in the league until recently, iso or no iso.

Maybe the age is a bigger concern than i thought. Quicker teams are torching us

I know Melo is hot but I hope that he already uses that to get his teammates involved.

maybe the league just got a scouting report. old = slow = can't keep quicker players in front of us and also = too slow to help and RECOVER to scramble back to your original assignment when old slow defenders get beat

Let's try to elevate the level of discourse in this byeetch. Please
