0-2 and historically bad defense ever since he decided to make the news in something other than basketball. It’s a pattern with this guy. Hopefully he doesn’t rub off on Zion and the rest of the guys with his wild off the court takes.

I've hated watching the 3-point defense all season but everyone keeps saying that it's the same defense that Milwaukee uses. Maybe we need to take into account that the East sucks balls and the West is full of teams that can shoot, and the reason the Bucks are winning games is because they're better than everyone else in their conference.

Couldn't Bulls shoot (an East team) ?

Cannot Zach Lavine shoot ?

Our spacing suck. The 3 point defense suck and the PG (Lonzo) sucks at playmaking...

The Bucks have The Greek Freak a great defender, better on ball defenders, and must important of all know and trust each other and the system.

One of our biggest problem is that where over thinking and over helping.

Meh, I’d rather take my chances with 3s than getting driven on in the paint and getting in foul trouble. Tonight was an anomaly; most teams won’t be that hot from outside.

It’s like how in football you first and foremost run and stop the run. If you give up a few bombs you tip your cap.

I’m good either way as long as Kira keeps getting minutes. If we lose a bunch, perfect. This is the year to acquire a player with length and athleticism. Lose the best 10 for all I care.

I hated Stan’s post game interview last night.

Paraphrasing but asked what they need to do to defend the perimeter better... ‘I don’t know’

Brilliant. Then who the frick does / should know Stan?

The thing is its 2021. This generation ain't missing shoot around 3 pointers. They been shooting them their whole lives. What they haven't been doing is creating post moves and shooting mid ranges. Idk man I really think someone should zig while the rest of the league is zagging if that makes any sense to yall. I'll hang up and listen.

If you read between the lines, he clearly thinks it's a personnel/effort issue, not a scheme issue.

Porzingis may be the single worst matchup for this team in the entire league - it's just so hard with Adams in the lineup to defend the 3 point line.

He may not be wrong, but these are the players you have. If whatever trade happens doesn't change things, he's going to have to consider some other strategy.

Not sure if Adams is still hurt, but he has been nearly useless the last couple of games on both ends.

A 100% healthy Adams probably wouldn't have been any difference. Dallas exploited the defense no matter what the personnel was. We don't defend bigs beyond the 3 point line. It's no coincidence that Porzingis was launching deep 3s with no hesitation all night. They knew our bigs would drop to prioritize the paint and we got destroyed. And by the time we adjusted, it was too late. They were already hot and in rhythm.

We can win games when the opposing star plays have big games, but we absolutely can't win games when their secondary guy also has a monster game. It's fine if Doncic and Lavine have big games but it's absolutely not okay if Porzingis and Colby White also have big games. The Pelicans defense gets exploited by good offensive teams. It's the story of the season.

our defensive rating (high number is bad) is currently sitting at 112.6

last year it was 109.4
year before 110.4
year before 105.6
year before 104.9
uncle al's first year 107.3

we fired uncle al cause his teams didnt know what the word defense meant. yet we hired a guy who managed to make our defense somehow worse than any year under alvin. obviously the sample size is only 25 games so far but not a great start from the walrus
