Well if you actually watch the shots, Allen is also multiple times the guy who lets his man just run past him. Your Okoro statement doesn't hold true because he has the least time spend on defending people involved in the offense out of the starting 5.that is a very interesting tool - thanks for posting it. It can be totally misleading to just look at the numbers, but the ability to watch the replay of each stat category is very informative. Just an example since that was part of your original post - watch Markk's plays and you see he got pretty lucky with people missing open shots (he gets caught over-helping and ball watching a few times). Allen gets rung up a number of times for being the guy "scored against" when someone else got beat and he was the closest defender. And Okoro actually looks great in that stat line - despite playing their primary scorers a good portion of the night, they only got 4 shot off on him and at least 1 of those was a fast break he couldn't have done anything about. If someone really wanted to pick apart our defense (and where the breakdowns are occurring), spending an hour with this tool would be very informative.
If you watch those 3 pointers made against Markkanen, you can see that Markkanen is overhelping the paint way too much. Is the situation really that bad with Allen and Mobley that Markkanen cant comfortably be on his guy on 3 point line?
