@snackdaddy Rondo only goes for the highlight defensive plays similar to James now and Kobe before he retired. His man on and switching D have slipped due to effort.
KCP is another guy who has consistent defensive lapses if he's having a bad shooting game. He needs the mentality of if I can't get it done offensively, I better contribute defensively. Lakers will miss that from Ball and Hart.
Yeah, good defensive players are nice. But you gotta score to win. Ball seemed to have some serious holes in his game. He's young, he might be pretty good one day. But right now he isn't. How well they play defense remains to be seen.
It seemed like Vogel had some pretty good defensive teams during his time in Indiana. We'll see if he can get them to commit to better defense. Watching them last year it sure seemed like opponents had too many good looks at the basket.
