Eh part of having a great defense is you can swing a series against better talent.Besides our lack of production at the SF our biggest issue is our offensive/defensive efficiency of our big 3 compared to other teams stars.
1. Giannis-Tatum-Embid-Mitchell
2. Holiday-Brown-Harden-Garland
3. Middleton-Smart-Maxey-Mobley
I don't think anybody expects Mitchell to be better than those 3. In a 7 game series maybe 1 or 2 games he is the best player on the floor. I really dont expect Mitchell to catch these 3 over the next 3 years. If that is the case our #2 and #3 have to be better. I think Garland is closer to the other #2 players but I would say all 3 are currently better. I would also say Garland is gonna catch Harden and Holiday sooner rather than later in the next 3 year and could be equal or better than Brown offensively but not defensively. Now with #3s I think this is where we can make bank in the future years. Mobley is going to continue to improve over the next 3 years while the other 3 are really maxed out. I could see Mobley being better than all 3 next year but how much better? It just comes down to staying healthy and our #2 and #3 getting better over the next 3 years so we can compete with the top 3.
The guys do need something and that's reps.
