Al's defense is godawful.


Meh, I think he's the best offensive center in the NBA. If he had great defense he'd be one of the superstars of the league. AD is supposed to be our rim protector anyway. I think their games complement each other well.

Considering how slow our pace is, I don't think he'll make enough points to outweigh the ones he allows.


Aren't we trying to move to a faster pace now that our team is younger? I thought the emphasis from Monty last year was to get out and run more and pick up the pace. Al Jefferson is more of a half court player anyway. he has great post moves.

I love how people talk about the team's slow pace as if the game plan is dribble, dribble, dribble and dribble some more. A fast pace starts with defense and rebounding and the pace is sped up more by having offensive players that can put pressure on the defense creating ball movement and open shots. That wasn't a shot at you specifically, but many seem to have this notion that Vasquez holding the ball until the last second is how the plays are drawn up.
