I wonder if they could do the same thing with Donovan.
They will both easily beat the warriors (assuming no one important gets injured)
Remember when Lopo came on here and did a victory lap about want Frank N then after that he has gotten ZERO buckets in the WCF?

Looney, Draymond, Grant Williams, Bam and guys like that can knuckle down and guard the perimeter while also being able to be in the paint some.
It's either the system or Rudy. Either way, his mann torched us the last two seasons. You guys can blame the other players on this team all you want, but its just a fact.
I think it's the system, but the system is built around Rudy. I wish they would move Quin and play normal defense but I don't see that happening.

I want him for his potential on defense since we have such poor defending on our team. But awesome point about him going 0-6 over 3 games in limited minutes.
Brag some more about that Conley trade and how it took us over the top. His defense and 9ppg on 37EFG% over 29mpg this postseason were so helpful.

Deflect and move the goal post
Imagine the Jazz get the 1st pick next year and they pass on Vic "Catchall said we can't draft anyone over 6'11"
Probably could. You put him in an environment where no one gives a **** about his minor personal accomplishments and he isn't a locker room leader and he would fall in line and play properly.
It's the system or Rudy?
It's the other players dingus. You lack so much nuance when it comes to judging Rudy yet you are able to do mental gymnastics at a gold medal Olympics level to make excuses for Donovan
And lmao at Lopo thinking drop big is some exotic defensive scheme. Over half the league plays majority drop coverage.
Stop acting like Donovan and Clarkson being turnstiles is a design and not a character flaw

Prime Shaq buries that team. Lebron is cute at center but that team needs rim protectors against my Hakeem, Pippen, Ray Allen, MJ, Lebron team… I bring Shaq KG and Steph off the bench.

I just can’t imagine watching the basketball this weekend and thinking bigs that control the paint on defense aren’t as important.

I really think you guys would struggle with:
MJ, Pippen, Bird, LeBron and Wilt

Nah shaq in todays game would still score, though not efficiently as many of his points would come from shooting 50% from the line. He would get killed on the other end as he woukd suck guarding the perimeter.
We already seem hakeem getting bounced early from the playoffs (embiid). Your other guys do fit the size criteria so well done.
