The Athletic NBA Daily
All-Perimeter Defense Team w/ Fred Katz

You have to be one of the five best offensive players in the league to have that.

The Athletic NBA Daily

And that, I mean, you look at Nikola Jokic, he averages 30 a night and then 10, 11 assists a night.

And that is so many more points responsible for on the scoreboard.

And so, yeah, Wimby erases a lot of points, certainly, but it's more nebulous.

Whereas on the offensive end, I mean, it's literally it's, you know, five ball corner pocket.

Aaron Gordon sitting there and you can see that Jokic made it happen.

I saw Howard Beck called it out in one of his articles the other day.

I don't know.

What would you, would you replace it with anything?

The Athletic NBA Daily
All-Perimeter Defense Team w/ Fred Katz

I mean, is there something, is there a better way to define what they're attempting to define?

On first team, all defense centers and Derek white.

The Athletic NBA Daily

I actually think they should bring positions back for everything.

The Athletic NBA Daily
All-Perimeter Defense Team w/ Fred Katz

Bring it back for all the awards because I represent the game that we watch.

The Athletic NBA Daily

This positionalist thing is just, it actually is fake.

The Athletic NBA Daily
All-Perimeter Defense Team w/ Fred Katz

it it's you're watching one side of the ball and you're not paying attention to the defense at all so i would rather they brought that back because it it just makes more sense uh jalen rose used to say that the positions are there so that like a novice can understand the game right like when you're describing it guards do this forwards do this centers do this and that's still how it works in the nba believe it or not i know everyone switches a lot and there's so much more zone

The Athletic NBA Daily
All-Perimeter Defense Team w/ Fred Katz

these guys still have positions and it would be easier to tell the story if the league bring that back.

It's like, if you have a power hitting second basement.
