We can talk about our putrid shooting for weeks on end. Or certain players that have regressed and their propensity to crap the bed. However, what bothers me the most is our Matador D. I'm watching guys get beat on the perimeter as if they're guarding Allen Iverson, D. Wade, or Tony Parker. Finley Bizzybop is not Dwyane Wade. Here's a suggestion: Stop the fking ball. I don't get this Scoopers, at all.
Guys are going hard right and we're standing there like we're escorting them to their room at the Four Seasons. I don't like the high hedge either, but it all starts with thwarting the dribble drive. Our individual D on the ball is horrific and our rim protection is about reliable as blood pressure apps. Why are we so god awful at this? If you cannot stop the ball, the result is death. It's as simple as that. Your margin of error essentially goes to shiiiit, and you have to win games by going ballistic offensively. I find this very disturbing at this juncture in the season.

We need to find a way to correct the problem moving forward. Start the proper habits this season. We shouldn't be chairs defensively.
