Hope he is healthy, has played only 9 games this year. If so, an upgrade over Brissett last year. Think we will see him in games like last night where Hauser and Browns defensive weaknesses are highlighted
I did hyperlink the site - The BBall Index :) It's a paid service, but they have like 6 or 7 amazing tools. A lot of players, teams and agents use that data, too
I think hes going to be more than the 14th man. He'll be 10th or 11th. He'll definitely be ahead of walsh, tillman and baylor (who's in maine). Depending on the matchup, he could be ahead of neemi. Lets not sell him short.
Moreover, its not like hes not playing because he sucks. Hes not playing because the bulls chose to allot development time to julian philipps, matas buzalis and dalen terry. Yes, he'll be behind here too but let not act like hes too washed to even be a rotational bench player. He was last year for the bulls.
Any thoughts on his defensive tape from this season? Not exactly a lot to go over, but would you say he was still moving well on that end despite being 34? I trust his defensive instincts if he still has the mobility defensively, and offensively I'm not worried. Man has always been a flamethrower.
He's still moving pretty well. Closes down space quickly, has quick hips when changing direction. Doesn;t have the same burst as a few years back, but has length to make up for it. He's 100% in the veteran decline phase of his career, and might struggle at times if it's a high-tempo game, but I think he should be fine on both sides of the ball - especially in limited minutes

What did you use to find the defense matchup allocation?

From what i've seen hes fine. Lost a half-step.probably but cant deterimine if thats rust, injury or actually getting old.
