The whole world seems to have reached the point where everybody is overrating the importance of length in point-of-attack defense. Sometimes it seems like nothing else matters. It's crazy.
You can do a lot by moving your ****ing body and cutting off driving lanes. Sure, bigger players will get...
WCJ has more paths to getting on the floor than Collier because of his ability to breakdown defenses while playing off-ball. WCJ is literally perfect for Hardy’s off-ball pin-down actions. If defenses don’t play that correctly, I think Walt can make them pay right away (on 40-42% 3-pt shooting)...
Really different players in terms of where they make their impacts on the floor. I think the more interesting question of how many minutes they may be able to share the floor.
Clayton’s shooting gives him an obvious edge. But this team is so bereft of good passers—and that gives Collier a wide...
Alas, this is what we've been saying since the last core was blown up. And this is why I've asked (in other threads) about how likely/unlikely it is that Collier and WCJ can share the floor. This is a tank year, so I hope they experiment with it.
I'm not too turned off by the idea of Collier...
I've been saying this a few too many times, but the Jazz's defense could take a substantial nonlinear jump. Good systems with the right minor additions can do that. It's not implausible to go from 28th or 29th to above league average.
Now that they've traded away most of the vets, the defense...
I'm really curious to see this lineup:
Collier
Bailey
Lauri
Hendricks
Flip
The floor is well-spread for Collier, who can then touch the paint and turn defenses inside-out. There's a chance that this lineup isn't a total sieve on defense, too.
