Smush coudn't keep a turtle in front of him last night. Defense is about effort and Smush gives effort on D once every 5 games or so. He needs to get it through his head that we need defensive effort first, offensive effort second. The talent is there but the effort isn't. I see him just watching instead of contesting a jumper. That shouldn't happen.Sasha...he just doens't have the talent to make it in the NBA. He tries but he just doesn't have it, and his decision making skills on both O and D are awful. It's not his fault but he's just not an NBA level talent, that's all there is to it. You can tell by the dumb reach fouls he gets 30 feet from the basket. It's not hate, it's an observation of a season and a half of complete ineptitude.
^^^^ pretty good thoughts... when it comes to Smush D , he doesn't react well lateral wise on the opponent guard first step.. and he can't defend when the opponent PF or center sets a screen up in the top of the key... overall yep the perimeter D is not there... it's crazy how the opponents penetrate and go to the hoop so easy.. and when another player helps, the rotation isn't here and we are owned on the offensive boards... I'm worried A LOT about Defense... we're were a lot better in this sector last year.. of course offensive wise we are (with Luke) better too but we have to find a balance if we wanna make a run in the playoffs...
We can't keep using the "kids" excuse anymore. We're better than that and it's not just the kids that's not coming through, it's the veterans more so.

They're huge difference-makers, man...You gotta keep that in mind.
