So many 2s and 3s in the nba are 6-7+
If he wants to play in the nba, he's going to have to be able to defend out to 35 get.
Imagine he's on a team playing Luka
Luka is going to have the guy ED is guarding come over to set a screen to force a switch. If ED can't keep up with Luka's moves, it's gonna be a long night.
Look at how much al horford gets hunted and targeted on d. That's the nature of the nba now. Find the mismatch and ruthlessly exploit it.
