I looked back a couple pages and didn't see it mentioned, I will...
Marshon is a terrible defender, he was bad the entire time he was in there and his last defensive assignment missed cost us the game. He was so far away from Jr. the kid could have taken three shots before Brooks got to him! He says he worked extra hard on defense this summer... well his trainer needs to be fired b/c he still looks terrible. He got beat so many times that whatever he did offensively didn't matter! All the work everyone put in for that victory and the one guy EVERYONE knew would get the shot was left free. He was the hottest player on the floor, the guy who actually played when our better players were out there. Brooks just gives him a free shot. Credit to Jr. for hitting it but man was that some terrible defense! When you are that good offensively but can't get PT, it's time to work harder on what you can't do... any good defender will tell you that defense is mainly about effort, well it seems like Brooks' puts effort into NOT defending b/c I don't know how he is so bad at it. I had high hopes for him but if he can't play D any better, he doesn't deserve minutes! Even Crawford had to defend better last season for Doc to play him and I think for the most part he did, he will never be great at it but at least his effort is there. Brooks looks lazy out there, always well behind his man and then thinks b/c he is so long he can just reach out and contest the shot, looks like a case of counting on God given attributes w/o doing the work necessary to use them to their fullest potential! UGH!
