thats what zone d is for

You want to Zone defense with the love for the 3 point shot and the range players pull up from now :dwillhuh:


You want 6'2 guards contesting guys like Porzingis, KAT, AD, Boogie, etc on the perimeter? :dwillhuh:

What about the love for transition 3s and the ability to overload? Imagine they let Prime Shaq Dunk and then turn the game into a straight foot race and attack before zones get set in :jbhmm:

Shaq would obviously be the most dominant player, in the league, BY FAR. No one could guard Prime Shaq, one on one, except maybe Big Ben.

But he's definitely be attacked on defense because his lateral quickness, motor, and he was injury prone. He tended to use the regular season to get into shape and he didn't care about his body like that.

His back is clearly still affecting him and his conditioning is not where it needs to be because he hasn’t been practicing with the team. Jusuf needs to stop it because he know he can’t guard a healthy and fit Joel Embiid :comeon:

Still don't know why philly didnt just keep giving the ball to embiid until Nurkic committed a foul. I mean I get it Nurkic did start forcing some turnovers and shut him down on the block but eventually he would have fouled out. Then the blazers would have had to put in davis who was sitting at 4 fouls...So he could been another quick lick to get rid of, since davis was out rebounding and killing him in the post. But with Nurkic and Davis out of the way he would have feasted off the rest of the blazers.....
