Maybe its just my opinion, but I'm frankly starting to think that we win or lose games depending on our defense will . InBecause this I can't agree too much with timvp...we have good to great defensive personnel, so in case we lose the game that should be because of bad offense, not bad defense. Vassell, Jones, Sochan, J.Rich should all be considered above average defenders....and also KJ (at small forward) , Bassey, Roby (just to name the people playing yesterday) should be considered at least more than decent on defense...
THe only real big hole at defense (as timvp wrote) is Mc D (with some help by Dieng on pick and roll situations)...but is that enough for explaining a collective poor defensive outcome (as could be suggested by is -20 plus minus)?
