    No. They are both weak at their positions on D bro..it is what it is on that point. I've never heard of Austin or Luka described as average or above average defenders. That doesn't necessarily mean we can't win with this combination, it's just going to be extremely difficult. At least one of your two best players, need to be a good defensive player too IMO.

    They can both jump you’re tripping. Luka doesn’t have to with his size, strength and control of the ball and his body but he can. I’ve done freeze frames and posted them here how high AR gets up to block a shot, grab the ball, stuff the ball …. whatever. He doesn’t like the cup the ball one handers, rather always uses two. Not a big leaper but he gets up in the 36” range.

    he was there when dallas made their good side moves, and he then he went to detroit right after. long-time guy in the league with lots of relationships. exactly what we need, imo.
