    Who cares about Martin... Martin was playing better defense because he wasn't going to sniff the court if he kept playing like he did under Adelman. Martin is just going to get in the way of Lamb. Let Lamb start! Martin just ended up playing slightly better D but showing that he needs a certain system to succeed offensively.

    Also, I know you are high on Jones but you continually dismiss his defensive ability. I think he has a lot of ability on defense. Maybe he will be Parsons-like this year.

    Howard/Asik and Parsons are going to be there to help cover on D.

    No, that was the reason i left his name out when i mentioned questionable defense.
    As i mentioned somewhere before, Jones is the perfect two way player.

    Since coachbadlee said they were going to be all stars, well, at least 3/4 of them. Don't worry those odds still favor us.

    Nothing to see here guys. Postbadlee is just making another stupid thread. Add your 1stars rating and move along.

    he didnt say "known PRO scorer" "PROVEN scorer in the nba" if players are able to score in college, summer league, international play .. i think they can be referred to as known scorers

    Not in the regular season NBA.
    they have only played in summer league dude. Stop arguing like they've been playing a full season and they have issues.
    what coaching staff does not stress defense?

    They haven't even started developing. All Rookies have to develop. What playing defense is detrimental?
    your legend as the dumbest poster grows.

    What? playing defense ? what not working? they've only played summer league dummy, there's no game examples of even what the real team would look like.
    what example is this? did he shut down Kevin Durant?
    you are now purposely saying things for the sake of having more sentences.



    you answered your own question based on your own baseless logic:

    Learning how to play defence is detrimental to rookies? I swear if I had a nickel for every time I heard that statement... I would be bankrupt.
