Yeah, when Phil Jackson, Kobe and Shaq ran the NBA as you concede. I think he´s out of his depth with the new rules and only been able to adjust at one end of the floor.
While I agree that Sabonis is a poor defender, this might just be more Carlisle scapegoating and having a fallout with Sabonis. Maybe the problem is that he´s comparing them all to Dirk and they simply cannot measure up.
I recently looked up Porzingis stats and he´s playing the 2nd lowest MPG of his career and taking the 2nd fewest shots. I found this absolutely hilarious, cause now he seems happy, when touches were allegedly the huge problem between him and Luka.
