Rudy T I hope you are learning just how to play team Basketball!

Right on chief!!!! Rudy is 100% of this team's problem. Period. I've been saying it for years.

 

I might have not watched the game as careful as I should.
Ok then, heyp, tell me who KT was guarding last night . Was it someone named G Wallace? He just got a career high 21 pts, 8rbs last night. So are you still telling me KT played great defensively.

 

And just to add to the pain they were all dunks and layups.

I've been watching the other aspects of his game more carefully recently. Certainly, they are his strong suits. The problem, I see, though, is that he plays defense and rebounds the same ways he plays offense, only for himself. His help defense is nothing special and he has no feel for who else on his team is rebounding with him (a problem Yao also currently has, imo). Granted, no one else plays great help defense either, but it just seems that KT is such an offensive liability that his better than average one on one defense for someone his size shouldn't get him that much time.
