Ross is a bad defender, as is JV. Can their lack of progress on the defensive end be at least partially pinned on Casey? I can't argue Casey shouldn't bear part of the blame.
And Ross, he's a better player than DeRozan. The next TMac, the next Ray Allen! Should be the Raptors starting 2 guard going forward according to the same peopleLast edited by The Great One; Sat Jan 17, 2015, 04:20 PM.Mamba Mentality

Hard to say M. Gasol would've won a DPOY trying to play this system. Or Roy Hibbert would look like a DPOY candidate.
JV is young and has lots to learn, but his D is not the big problem with the system and the team's struggles. There's more blame to spread around to players, as well as a big chunk to go to the system.
Following up on Carlisle and the Mavs angle....Do they still run the same system? If they do (I've only seen them 3 or 4 times this year and didn't pay that close attention), and they're ranked 18th in the league in DRTG (per bballref), with the ideal C for the system, it shows that it's a lot more complex than having a mobile C.
*And seriously, way to exaggerate and try to be divisive. Nobody thinks Jonas is the 2nd coming of Wilt. However he's a true C with a physical/skills package to go with it. And Casey's trying to use him almost exclusively in his areas of greatest weakness on both ends for the past 2 years. Thank goodness he's at least shown decent improvement in the post, otherwise he'd only touch the ball on offensive rebounds.Last edited by white men can't jump; Sat Jan 17, 2015, 04:26 PM.

Then the other team makes 1 pass and we have to rotate 3 more players to cover for that. Completely rubbish system.
Help and rotating defenses can get exposed quite easily, hence why we are seeing some of the best defenses in the league running to kill picks or switch rather than help and rotate (Bulls, Mem, GS).

Either the system has been figured out by now, or guys have stopped listening.

His lack of passing and swinging the ball is killing the offense. The defense has always been shitty. Now its just people have scouted enough games to know that Lou wants to go left. That Demar gets the ball off pindowns. That ross catches the ball, takes 3 to 4 dribbles and attempts a three. Not rocket science. Casey's system is just terrible.
