This is completely exaggerated. The offensive abilities of these players and the defensive rules makes defense really difficult. So many plays where you just have to tip your cap to the offensive player for beating a great defense.


Pretty much true. There is some bad defense at times in the NBA but it's usually scheme and rotations as opposed to individuals. The offensive game of NBA players is miles ahead of the NCAA. During a pregame warmup, I once saw an NBA bench player make 21 three-pointers in a row. Obviously it's different at game speed but the guys have such refined offensive games that it's at times impossible to defense - see Steph Curry.
