When did they start playing defense in the NBA again?
I heard a Tracy McGrady interview a few months ago and he was dismissing the idea that there is any defense being played in the NBA as ridiculous. Not just as one of these old cranks complaining about the rule changes and lack of physicality allowed on defense now, but as in there was never much defense since he came into the league almost 20 years ago. I don't know if I buy it, but I was shocked at how dismissive he was at the idea of even serviceable defense in the NBA. Then again, he says some dumb things on Twitter, so maybe he should just be ignored.
