I agree with this. He's still good defensively however when he's getting starters minutes he needs to bring more to the table.
they're both still here and i'm okay with it. we can't be upset over losses when we're missing two of our best players. we'll be fine.
Just goes to show you how important defense is. You could be a lackluster offensive player, but if your defense is good, you have a role.
I hate Ariza’s inconsistent three point shot, but without his perimeter defense, the Rockets wouldn't have had a chance in this series. So it’s definitely a love hate relationship.
you bumped this, and all I saw was "I have grown to HATE . . . ", and I jumped in thinking someone had started the long-awaited "I have grown to HATE Carmelo Anthony" thread, and then I saw that this was simply a bump of an Ariza hating thread, and I was disappointed.
