For somebody who covers the nba, that was a lowlight for this page.. not a huge russ fan but you know exactly what he brings to the court and why he is regarded as a future hofer. People act like the lakers season is his only season 🤦♂️
If you watch Russ in the last few games he has been very good defensively which Has surprised me because last year he was horrible. I think he will slowly regress through out the year defensively because he will put in less effort. But we’ve learned that when he tries he is a force defensively
I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. 5'10". During my earlier days, I used to think of some POOR defenders. I have a few nominations: James Edwards: Defense: D. Kiki Vandeweghe, Defense: D. Kevin Duckworth, Defense: D. Other players, Defense: D: Craig Hodges, Jon Sundvold, Alec Kessler, Avery Johnson, Jason Williams (White Chocolate), John Battle, Steve Johnson, Danny Ferry, Terry Catledge, Scott Skiles, Rex Chapman, Don MacLean, Tracy Murray.
I don't respect anyone who doesn't play defense or give effort to that side of the floor. No defense = no winning = no championships If you dominate on the offensive end, you'll always be less skilled than the dude who dominates BOTH ends of the floor in my eyes (that would make guys like Stockton, Kidd, GP more skilled than Kyrie and Pippen, Bird etc. more skilled than KD)
Trae is 6 foot 1 compared to Curry being 6 foot 3 which is not that bad. Did you know that when you gain muscle your ability to shoot gets put into jeopardy. It would be better if Trae just guards the worst offensive player on the other team. Trae is also super light.
Two worst body types that will almost certainly be poor defenders in the NBA are stick -figured, short point guards AND big, lumbering 3 point shooting stretch 4's and 5's. Those guys have limitations based on their physique, but even they can play good, helping, disciplined, position defense. Anyone who doesn't have those limitations and is nonetheless playing poor defense just isn't giving the required effort and needs to take a seat at the far end of the bench.
@@gusbus1973 yep, look at Draymond Green for the best example. Dude is easily one of the best defenders has ever seen yet people clown on him cause he can't put up 10+ points consistently. Fans claim they want defense, yet hate any defensive specialist at the same time.
@@awesomereviews1561 hes one of the best defenders of all time and you guys keep calling him triple single disrespecting him. 7 time all team defense, former defensive player of the year, and damn near averages a triple double almost every year and you guys still disrespect him. Don’t say “insufferable” either you sound like a 13 year old emo girl talking about her Republican dad on tik tok😂😂
Some of these bad defensive players expend so much energy on offense! Alot of the worst defensive players are big men that get dunked on,they sure can't guard off the dribble,those types are there for rebounds,easy buckets!
Hes 1st in steals and deflections for a center and was top 6 in defensive rating with a below average defensive supporting cast. I think its fair to say he's atleast decent or barely passable
You really could have said "everyone on the Jazz not named Gobert" as a collective worst defender. They were all SOOOOO bad in the 2021 and 2022 playoffs.
The first play where Trae Young nutmegged JJ Reddic was so bad he retired a day later lmao. I'd be pissed off if I made this list so much I foul out of every game trying to get off it the next year.
Misinformation with the Lakers bit. They actually could have kept Alex Caruso even after the Russ trade. They just chose not to pay him even after he recommended a compromise on the contract.
Ik nobody gonna say it because I’m prolly the only kings fan here, but Sobonis is better then most think on D, especially recently. Just because he doesn’t block a lot of shots he doesn’t get the credit. He’s not elite or anything, but he’s not that bad.
How is Russell Westbrook a bad defense player with his rebounds he averages a triple double so that’s ten rebounds that’s a alright defense player right there
Trading away Brendan Ingram and keeping kuzma was just a great mistake, imagine Brendan Ingram playing on the Lakers man we would be playing playoffs to say the least
@@ry_an. Tru Tru...it's kinda sad for me though cuz Westbrook is one of my favorite players but I ain't been watching in awhile and i didn't know he was doing this bad
Gallinari is on the Celtics. Jokic is not a terrible defender he has come a long way on that end, he's an average defender, not worth being on the list.
I dunno..jokic is ok too good on D, and in his prime, Tristan was very good on D, and dude...rudy is very good on D in paint. many centers are horrible to ok to good on perimeter (sans Draymond who can guard 1-5 and on perimeter). Rudy should be off this list of worst defenders
Heh you could easily follow this up with a clip discussing how Bill is the greatest defender the league may ever see. With clips of him obliterating people.
Who's the single WORST defender in the NBA right now?
Anfeerne Simons
Probably kawhi
How you going talk about these dudes and you can’t even play defensive
how is Jordan Poole not mentioned in this video
For the hawks when you said John Collins, John Collins is a good defender but Trae Young and Gallinari aren’t but Dejounte Murray is
This man straight up roasted Russ for 2 minutes! LOL
😂😂😂😂😂
That’s why I like this dude no f giving haha

@@toohonest_ cancer patient russ fan
"My grandma could play better defense than MP" - Kendrick Perkins.
😂
"I'm better than LeBron James at defending" - gotta be skip bayless
You can literally drop 120 points and Kendrick will still call you trash
True
Bro says that like i aint averaging 8 blocks and 2 steals a game
0:02 "and their coaches pull their hair in despair" *SHOWS A BALD JASON KIDD* 💀💀
😢
U didn’t need to do Jason Kidd like that
59:59
“as coaches pull their hair” but show the baldest jason kids head has ever been im dead 😂😂
This is why Nonstop Sports is the GOAT of basketball youtube. Keep up the grind man, I hope to see you at 1 million this year!!!
FR
that Westbrook segment was BRUTAL
This dude Westbrook stay getting clowned on😂
Not all his fault. As a laker fan I can’t wait for him to leave but the scapegoat stuff is over the top
"Deandre is a walking corpse" wow that is rough bro
Russel Westbrook is better at Guarding his teammates then his opponents
Stop lying 💀
LMAO
Idk why but I find this as facts
Ohhhhhh myyy god
Jamal crawford is one of the worst defenders in NBA history, lmao.
Daaaamn for the first time I see them hating on players so much, especially Westbrook💀
This one of the funniest, true videos yall have ever posted💀💀

They didn't trade away Alex Caruso, they let him sign with the Bulls cus they didn't want to pay him what he deserved.
cause caruso isn’t that good
@@larknez523 he and bron was the best two man duo in the league statistics wise when they won the ring buddy
Remember when good offensive players actually played defense. Good times.
@𝓛𝓸𝓿𝓮🎃 kawhi Paul George as well
It’s harder now, everyone can shoot and you can’t hand check
@𝓛𝓸𝓿𝓮🎃 curry got solid defense he a better offensive player though
@Love dont forget jayson tatum
Another 90s fan in the building. Punching each other isn’t defense, now you have to have actual skill to play great d
Westbrook segment sounded really personal
this was when people had a hate boner for russ
Man really roasting Russ hard like chill
You cooked the shit out of Russ 😂😂. Justifiably though
Fake hustle that's perfect cuz he can be a good defender due to his athletic gifts but he just doesnt try
Then he better start trying because that athleticism of his is going to expire soon.
Caruso played winning basketball. Full court pressure, getting under the opponent's skin, and being ready to knock down any shot if called upon.
Yo you murdered Westbrook lol. Definitely sounded personal 🔥😂

That's why Luka won't win the chip too. Just another Melo and Harden. Un-guardable scorer with bad defense and mediocre 3pt shot.
@@coops1992 Luka is a better defender and passer than both of then
Buddy Hield is like : Dude you spend 5 minutes talking about defensive stats, am I that bad? Yes you are
Finally a nonstop sports video
I feel this guy just wanted to rant about Russell and then made this video.
He’s a hater
Leave my man Russ out of this 🤣🤣🤣
i think Trae still can improve his defence just like Curry, Curry bulk up just to improve his defence, i think trae could do it also
Trae is 6 foot 1 compared to Curry being 6 foot 3 which is not that bad. Did you know that when you gain muscle your ability to shoot gets put into jeopardy. It would be better if Trae just guards the worst offensive player on the other team. Trae is also super light.

Bring back defense stars in the NBA like Ben Wallace and Dennis Rodman

You need to change all the rules for that.

So excited to see your video 😂😂
Your NBA posts are the best 👍🏻
Everyone is talking about Trae or Russ, but I’m just here happy about this mans voice coming back to voice over more videos
number 10: someone got 5 steals last game and plays good defence
People love being sheep and following what’s popular. Right now it’s hating on Westbrook for stuff that’s not even his fault
@@rich4446 "Not even his fault"💀
THANK YOU!! I’ve been saying for the longest Russ isn’t that good on Defense
Keep it a bean, russ bean the best defender for L.A thus far this season. I'm not gonna say this is bad timing but ehh
Russ is locking up brothas now
Hi love the vid
Ik your ass didn’t even watch the vid
How you know you love it you comment 2 minutes ago
W video like all ways nonstop sports
Might be the worst defenders, but they would stay clamp us.
I appreciate the angry lying undertone with the narrator since all the players can definitely improve their defensive caliber.
Some of these bad defensive players expend so much energy on offense!
Alot of the worst defensive players are big men that get dunked on,they sure can't guard off the dribble,those types are there for rebounds,easy buckets!
0:01 "pull their hair in despair"
what hair lol
list should be
Duncan Robinson 6'7 cant guard a chair easily the worst in the league
Trae young
Demar derozan
Jalen Green
Buddy Hield
worst defenders
Jokic isn't that bad. So many players should be mentioned before him.
Hes 1st in steals and deflections for a center and was top 6 in defensive rating with a below average defensive supporting cast. I think its fair to say he's atleast decent or barely passable
@@justinholland6132 absolutely. He's got two rightfully given MVP trophies but some still don't realize how talented he is.
@@justinholland6132 defensive rating is about line up Nigga jokic still shitty defender
Jalen Green improve his DEFENSE this season 🔥🔥🔥
6 games into the season russ is 13th in defensive rating and 2nd among all pg.
Sabonis is a bad take for this list
shows him blocking dunks lol
No. 1: James Harden 💀
He's average on the perimeter and is a good post defender
@$aga Beats no you don't
@@zainhussein6779 he takes alot of plays off,could be better with more effort!
Dayummmm this guy hates Westbrook
No Harden? What a joke
Best defender is Kawhi leonard
You really could have said "everyone on the Jazz not named Gobert" as a collective worst defender. They were all SOOOOO bad in the 2021 and 2022 playoffs.
Say coach pulls hair - shoes bald coach
Lol good video tho
idk if this video a joke or nah lol 😂
James Harden should’ve been the first Person you brought up instead of Russell Westbrook gang 🤦♂️
Though jokic isn’t a good defender he’s fat from a bad one pretty valuable just not useful kind
I know the NBA is supposed to represent a scoring paradise but seriously man ... Have some people forgotten the phrase " No D , no W " ?
The first play where Trae Young nutmegged JJ Reddic was so bad he retired a day later lmao. I'd be pissed off if I made this list so much I foul out of every game trying to get off it the next year.
Russel Westbrook had not good Defense, even in his prime
he was a decent defender in okc
@@3rr1k_ but he doesnt play defense
@@autismspectrum-k7y ???????
Did he just call Mike Conley a bad defender when he was talking ab Gobert?!!!
I remember I ordered a 5 piece Popeyes tenders to watch that playoffs series with Trae young last year I was so disappointed at how lame he was
Jaylen Brown next video Nonstop Sports 💪💪💪
2:58 Danilo Gallinari and Lou Williams is not in the Hawks anymore.
Misinformation with the Lakers bit. They actually could have kept Alex Caruso even after the Russ trade. They just chose not to pay him even after he recommended a compromise on the contract.
he really spelled trae youngs name trey😂😂😂😂😂😂
misspelling trae young is crazy 💀💀💀
westbrook wasnt so bad at defence
Welp. Who's here after Russ was amazing defensively and offensively in the first round?
here in the 2024 season. dude been amazing defensively, shit is crazy. legit one of the best guard defenders right now
From what I see in NBA the most who have longer careers are the 3nD type of players.
Westbrook sounds like my 2k myplayer lmao
Ik nobody gonna say it because I’m prolly the only kings fan here, but Sobonis is better then most think on D, especially recently. Just because he doesn’t block a lot of shots he doesn’t get the credit. He’s not elite or anything, but he’s not that bad.

yeaah but you wouldn't have a ring
also you would HAVE to keep kuzma
Bruh u heartless with the criticisms ...no bs i think some of these players might cry if they saw this video...but as usual Thanx for the dope video
they make millions of dollars. theyre fine
@@ry_an. Tru Tru...it's kinda sad for me though cuz Westbrook is one of my favorite players but I ain't been watching in awhile and i didn't know he was doing this bad
DJ is all of a sudden 5 years younger on the nuggets
Nikola Jokic!! Jokic is giving up more point when trying to defend layups than any player since they started tracking it. (2013)
My 2k player when it's still not upgraded
Is this LegendofWinning doing the voice over?
Gallinari is on the Celtics.
Jokic is not a terrible defender he has come a long way on that end, he's an average defender, not worth being on the list.
Well Trae is an offensive weapon so yee not all guards are 2 way guards
Yea but he is terrible on defense, if he’s having an off game on offense his impact is little to none.
I dunno..jokic is ok too good on D, and in his prime, Tristan was very good on D, and dude...rudy is very good on D in paint. many centers are horrible to ok to good on perimeter (sans Draymond who can guard 1-5 and on perimeter). Rudy should be off this list of worst defenders
You do realize that Russ is ranked one of the best guards defensively in the league right now yeah? Pretty sure he’s ranked a t15 defender currently…
Heh you could easily follow this up with a clip discussing how Bill is the greatest defender the league may ever see. With clips of him obliterating people.
100% My Vote goes to Onovan NO-D AKA NO-Mamba Mitchell…!!!
Man I am starting to feel bad for Russ
Why he sound so angry😂😂😂
Why is jokic still not seen as a good defender, he's not great yeah but he's one of the best pick and roll defenders in the league.
Some of them are LAZY DEFENDER not BAD DEFENDER
kyrie irving, michel porter jr
Here’s the thing, Westbrook was trash on d the last few season but against the Clippers, he had 5 steals.
Great list but wheres harden?
He is an average defender
i taught it was only top 10? dude mention almost the whole nba...
damn this video goes hard lol
Caruso one of the best perimeter defenders in the league? Stop the cap
Russ' defense is better this season, he was great versus the Clippers, PG was struggling
7:50-10:00
Lakers are the team that if you watched the NBA team 7 years ago u would think is the best ever. Same thing with that kobe team a while ago
Also Davis hasn't been a good shooter for like 3 years now lol.
Bro how Westbrook is like the only fool that can block kd.
Bad list my bro.
