In games like this, you want to see elite defenders gets steals, blocks, deflections etc. Omax is not getting those. That is all I am saying. With his build and length, he should be getting a lot more of those plays.
Not intended for anyone, specifically - I only skim game threads.
I disagree with you, that's all. What "you want to see" is not really what I'm monitoring, actually, but I have seen TONS of long-armed deflections from O-Max in these three games, so far. He affects soooo many possessions.
The thing people don't notice as much as I wish they would is when an action is overtly designed for a specific player to get the ball in an area to create a shot, but then he PASSES, rather than even attempt that shot. When people judge the quality of a defender, they tend to only monitor times when their man puts shots up, but that's like only caring about the endgame in chess.
