I'm having difficulty thinking of a big on the roster who's a worse defender than McDyess. I suppose Mahinmi just because he fouls so much and can't get minutes, but after that I'm drawing a blank.

I was giving him credit by assuming he'll be an average defender with his "usual" 2nd half burst..either way, our supporting bigs are very weak from a defensive standpoint..

Apparently Pop still believes Duncan is the same defender that can control the paint on his own..

RMJ has a run of good games = nobody cares, doing what he's supposed to do
RMJ has one poor shooting game = scape goat, down to 5 MPG

I feel for the dude this season, it makes no sense for him to be used the way he is right now, Pop is giving him the TP treatment... except Mason is already a vet lol
