Don't disagree at all, just making the point to those that think defense is archaic in modern basketball is just silly. To your point of BI not complimenting Zion, I believe that is just a narrative folk like to espouse due to a disappointing end of season, omitting a clunky roster construction, and an ill-conceived offensive system. It also makes great fodder for the fan base to quibble over, deflecting a lot of blame from the grocery makers and bakers.

From the group that gave us the great Sato, for sure, lets take our two elite finishers and give them primary ball-handling duties, what could go wrong? Oh, and lets back them up on defense with a plodding or undersized post presence, for sure that's the ticket. But yeah, let's get more shooters, that'll fix everything. Newsflash, Pels had 3 40% shooters on the floor against OKC.

Basketball is a simple but beautiful game, defend, pass, and shoot. Absolutely no reason for Zion and BI not getting you an easy 50 points a night consistently, but no lets flip the script and have them set up our role players for great looks, that'll catch the league off-guard ..... you just can't make this shite up.
