Mike D'antoni at it again

It's skewed because the Cavs couldn't miss the other night & they didn't rebound against the lakers. They played great D against the Mavs & Knicks.

There's just too many good/great defenders on this team when healthy (KJ, Nene, Harrell, Capela, Ariza, Beverley) to be the worst in the NBA. They won't be elite or anything but they should be around 15-20.

They were bottom 10 last year with all of them excluding Nene, who averaged less than 60 games the past 3 yrs due to injury. How does the addition of Nene and a coach like D'Antoni vault them into top 15 or 20? Only one team in D'Antoni's history as a head coach has been top 5 defensively. Rest have been either below average or just very bad.

Not that different from his former teammate Westbrook in OKC.
