I think Rudy has another wave of improvement in him. He’ll be able to adjust pretty well to whatever shape defenses need to be in the next 5 years. But he needs some help, and the base defense needs to change. A long, rangy powerwing who could be menace as a help defender at the rim would be a dream come true.And like don't get me wrong... I like having foundation items in the game plan to build off of... I like trying to make your opponent beat you at what you do best. But if they are beating you regularly then you must adjust.
I really wanted to play the Clips so we could see Rudy in the playoffs against a non-shooting big and see how much impact he could have... sigh.
And we could use Dunn-level Or Smart-level disruption on the ball. I’m so tired of our ineptitude in this aspect of defense.
