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.

It's impossible to argue with guys who clearly haven't watched the games. RIght now, they are refusing to accept that players aren't motivated at all to play hard for the Pels. If they watch the Rockets, they will quickly realize that is the only explanation.

Maybe their offense is so good that they put so much pressure on the opponent to keep up with them scoring the ball that the opponent ends up forcing bad shots.

Could also be that the offense comes so easily for them that they have more energy to spend on defense.

Maybe a combination.

The fact is though that they are defending well and I've been pleasantly surprised.
