      Davis carried that defense while Minnesota often had a *better* defense when Gobert hit the bench. Davis can often guard the pick and roll *by himself* and is an all around better perimeter defender

    Spurs can get into the playoffs EASILY, if POP doesn't TANK yet again.
    Castle seems a great fit for Wemby, giving him assists and adding to the defense, which with Wemby being the unanimus DPOY and Sohan being very good, all 3 should make it top 10 defense in the league. Barnes will provide some much needed scoring and hopefully won't be a liability on the defense.
    CP3 can easily get 5 assists per game just by throwing lobs to Wemby.
    Healthy Wemby plus one more piece and a bit of depth could actually make them contenders.

    Giannis definitely didnt carry greece to paris. He was influencial for sure but his inability to shoot is key on how greece plays basketball because he can attack only on fast breaks. Greece may not have plenty of NBA players but has great euroleague ones. They play very smart together, they pass the ball very fast and dont rely on isolations. I think they have better chances to qualify than australia. If this team goes far it will happen because of its teamwork, every time that they have relied on isolation plays from giannis, didnt end well.
