    I can already tell it's gonna take glaring losses for D'antoni to even consider fixing any of this.

    Joe Johnson might be the worst defender on the team.

    And that’s saying something.

    Green looking like the odd man out again. Appears MDA just doesn't trust him.

    Even if he starting hitting shots off the catch(he's ALWAYS been an off-dribble ISO guy not catch and shoot), he never, ever gets to the line. Last year he shots average efficiency from the field well but was inefficient because getting to the line is very RARE for him.

    He doesn't rebound and he can't stay in front of anybody. Albeit, as bad as he is as a man defender he's not stupid as a team defender. Decent enough understanding.

    He adds nothing to the team and it'll take losing several games for him to be excluded from the rotation.

    It's interesting how much faith D'Antoni is showing in Joe already. He's the one that looks rusty to me. BRING BACK GERALD!!!

    Dantoni will be the downfall of this team with his favoritism and rotation. this ain't the same joe Johnson from the mid 2000's.

    Perhaps this is why MDA's team could not go far in playoffs. Just too stubborn.
