But in context of what he is saying about Nellieball being stuck in the 70s, so are a lot of NBA fans, and very much the Warriors ones.
When they even deem to speak about defense, it is in terms of blocks or steals or the need to lock YOUR MAN down.
That's just not it at all. Given how elite defense is actually played, and the correlation between top defensive teams and playoff success, you just aren't even in the game if that is your frame of reference.
Although yes, defending your man is still important. But even then, if you hold him to 40% shooting or whatever, you win.
Montards disagree. 25 points on 21 shots is just awesome as far as they are concerned.
