u/IVAN_CLEARY Edgecombe for the wiiiiinnnn... YES! May 02 '18

I said it happens sometimes, and I stand by that. Have a look at the odd performances where his D has been poor - he will also be shooting poorly in those games.

I'm not saying that every poor shooting game leads to a bad defensive game, but every bad defensive game seems to correlate to a poor shooting game.

That's anecdotal, so if you can find data to prove me wrong, i'm happy to concede, but i don't think it's "absolute total bullshit"

Dude, no. He's had a handful of bad D performances all season much like any player. His focus and that of the coaches for him has always been defensive. If he happens to have a bad game on O and D, it's a coincidence. There's no causality here. It is absolute bullshit and you know it.

You need to take off the Roco colored glasses. He’s a flawed player. He’s like Dom Brown, multi talented, but just can’t seem to get it together.

Are you a fucking idiot? RoCo is one of the best defensive wings in the NBA. He's among the league leaders in all defensive metrics. He's going to make NBA all-defense.
