It was very insightful. I agree Brandon team defense has been lacking. However, the team's poor play on defense overall can be seen with this play. The screen was a practically a double screen. So in defense of Brandon with Granger being in the way, it would be hard for him to see Bogut until it was too late. In the case for Granger, Bogut was coming around him, but had he slipped down to cut off the pass his man probably would have cut back to the top of the key for an open shot. As a Pacers fan, I see the flashes brillance from them, but they are so inconsistant. I just feel they lack the communication to be a top defense. Why they haven't developed that trust I have no idea. Hopefully, time away to recharge their batteries and so infusion of new talent might do the trick. I like the post. It was very insightful.
