Solo coming back to guard one of Wiggins or Butler helps a lot, but Jrue having to guard a 6'8" scorer for an entire series is not ideal.
We should be able to say the same thing about 6'9" Taj Gibson guarding either Cousins or AD, but we dont' care about mismatches, which is why we will never beat a team like Minny, or Houston with Ariza guarding AD, or GSW with Iggy guarding AD. The whole point of the twin towers, you would think, is that there is no other team that can match up with you, and you'd force teams to quit playing small, but instead, we allow them to play a SF on AD, and rarely take advantage of it. Blah blah blah AD isn't good at posting up. Use your arse, and some motion in the offense and get deep position on them, the rest is easy. giving AD the ball 15 feet from the basket with Ariza on him isnt' the best plan.

Well to me when AD is put in the post with smaller defenders he either settles for a jump shot or they double team him forcing him to turn the ball over with bad passes... I rarely see him uses his post skills

Only slightly better than Cousins from the top of the key going Allen Iverson iso ball. Then losing the handle and not getting the foul called and pouting. Leading to crap defensive transition, to go back to OPs original topic.
