Good defense is a lost art. I mean how many times do you see pgs get all the way to the basket with one move and no contest whatsoever. I'm more surpsrised when I see someone defend than the opposite.
Because they are some bytch made nikkas. That's why the NBA is un-watchable at times.
I actually sat down and watched some of that Thunder-Bulls game and they weren't playing no defense. Kurt Heinrich was playing some of the worse, standing around defense I've seen in my life.
People here acting like any nba player can be a great defender if he wanted to.
it's not that easy.
The reason why Harden isn't a great defender is the same reason why Tony Allen is not a great scorer, or Brook Lopez is not great rebounder. It's about talent and skills.
SMH @ this logic. Then all Kobe has to do is pass, which is why he used to be a very good defender.
Jason Kidd was a great two player. So is Rondo. SMH @ not even Avery Bradley status; Bradley's the best or second best perimeter defender in the league. That's like saying Kobe ain't shyt because he's not LeBron/MJ status.
Kevin Durant has a 7 foot wingspan and is as athletic as anyone in the league. Dude should be swatting errbody
fouls out too easily
Melo is athletic enought to get room for his jumpshot but he cant put a hand up?
see durant
Harden is 6-6 220 and dude literally just stands there, thats not acceptable in pick up games let alone the NBA.
his left ankle went to houston while his right stayed in okc
But foreal tho, if you have the energy to run three circles around the court just to take a contested jumpshot... you should have the energy to play some defence
It boggles my mind how coaches can think this is acceptable
