Oh, the "DRIP". The made-up formula that assigns an individual score weighted heavily by team totals when the individual is on the floor.
You may think they're doing some advanced analytics, but no. That is just the simplest way to assign a generalized value to a player that puts a number on countless things that are going on that are completely outside of his control.
Rather than go by his actual defensive numbers, you'll go by all the other players' numbers that are assigned to him by guys who need to go back to the drawing board on complementary basketball.
It's defining the specific as the general.
This just downgrades Young for bad roster management by the Hawks.
Complementary basketball is important. But not for this ironically inexact "formula".
And you should give yourself a negative score for going back a year and attempting to focus on 2022-23 instead the most recent season.

You've posted none. Steals are not "defensive numbers"

I've posted multiple analytics showing just how terrible he is. The fact that part of the reason why he's bad at D is gambling for steals isn't a defense of Trae.

Why do they play so much better defense without him, if they are so terrible at defense?

You apparently only read one article I posted
