You don't get a top 5 equivalent d rating with three of the worse defenders in the league like you claim Bubba. The three worse defenders in the league can't post that kinda d rating if they had hakeem and Gary payton out there with them.

Sure they can.

They didn't magically change. They are being hidden. Ryan Anderson played very hard, he just really sucks defensively.

Gordon probably didn't give a frick, that is true.

You don't hide 3 players out of 5.

I agree that Ryan Anderson has problems defensively. But Harden and Gordon have good instincts. They just need to stay focused, which is easier to do on a good team.

Harden did "magically change." The guy gave zero fricks last year. He came into the season in horrible shape after spending the offseason with an ankle sprain and a Kardashian. This year, you can clearly see that he is in much better shape.

I've watched every game. They're all playing well on defense. Even Ryan Anderson.

You can't hide everybody. And you can only hide a defender if the rest of the team is made up of good defenders.

I know it is surprising, as it's been a surprise to me, but they are all defending well.
