You couldn't be more wrong. Don't defend? 4th in the league in points against (per 100 possessions). 8th in steals. 2nd in blocks. Thompson Iguadala Bogut Green are all elite defenders - other guys are excellent as well.
Rebounds? 4th in the league in rpg (1 in defensive rebounds).
Points in the paint? 9th in the league.
This is an historically great team talented in every facet of the game. The level of difficulty on Curry and Thompson shots is off the charts and they hit at a nearly 50% clip! No defense can stop that in any era and it makes it nearly impossible to guard the entire team because your defense is stretched out way beyond the 3 point line (hence their success scoring in the paint).
The league is better than its ever been in my opinion. Fast paced, ball-movement oriented offense is so much better to watch than the ISO ball of Jordan's era.
Can't wait for the finals where Cleveland will be a very tough out.
Durty just got done dirty. Lighthouse just dropped the mic bro. It's ok Durty, we've all taken an L at some point.
