0:01 already you're showing why he's bad on defense. His back is to the ball, he's begging to get beat backdoor. YOUR BACK SHOULD NEVER BE TO THE BALL. 0:13 again, bad defensive positioning. Can see ball, cannot see his man. Grade school defensive basics. Again, begging to get beat backdoor. This first play was just a bad pass making him look like he's playing smart. In reality, he played that poorly from the jump. Someone just happened to throw the ball right to him. 2:23 again, he's beat here cuz he's stuck backpedalling. Durant for some stupid reason passes it again? 10:17 I do not understand why people defend players like this. That's stupid. "He's just conserving his energy by playing no defense", and yall wonder why he's not in the MVP discussion or respected by people that actually know the game. Conserve energy, fine, but do that shit on the bench. 11:02 this possession starts off well enough. He's actually in good help defense, problem is he drops down way too far. He's beat here, dunno why that player hesitated. He drives hard and it's an easy two points.
Why is phoenix doubling luka i get that he is a great player but if he can create so many good looks wouldn't it be better to have a good defender guarding him
When Luka decides to stop someone defensively, he will certainly stop them, it's depending on the opponent and the result that team have at the moment and he has stopped the best forwards a few times this season.
The guy on the right on offence is a 40 percent three point shooter that’s why. In the nba giving a wide open corner shot is basically giving up a layup to guys who can shoot like that.
