Winslow will probably need to put on some muscle. He played AMAZING defense against Lebron and did exactly what he was supposed to do but he's simply too weak to do anything against him.

Obviously, not everyone is Lebron-level strong but a lot of the guys Winslow gonna be guarding are gonna be these physically strong guys who like to post up (Melo, Paul George, Jimmy Butler, Lebron, etc).

You see it with young and talented defenders like Winslow and Wiggins. They're just not used to being weaker and smaller than the guys they're guarding. Good defense can only matter so much if you red not strong enough to effect them.

Remember how Wade was putting that work on Wiggins last year?

Also, anyone seen what happened to Richardson? I'm surprised he isn't getting more burn.
Yeah, I'd love to see more Richardson also. But we have so much depth on the perimeter.

:manny:

what i'm saying is that he's 19 and he's already built like a rookie lebron...dude is pretty yoked for his age. he doesn't even need to do any crazy strength training at the moment, he's gonna grow into an absolute beast just with time. I see him growing into a khawi leonard type body eventually.

Oh hell yeah. The mere fact that he didn't immediately bounce off of Lebron is stupid for any 19 year old because Lebron has casually bullied 6'9 and 6'10 power forwards or even guys LIKE Butler and George.

Winslow is way ahead of schedule, defensively. I wasn't expecting him to start guarding star players till 10 or so games into the season.

I was thinking we wouldn't see this until the end of the year. Miami has a pretty bad track record for giving rookies minutes....the team must have really been impressed with him in training camp/preseason/etc...

Also this nees to be said: I never complain about refs and thats something i make a conscious effort to NOT do but does James harden have pics of the league refs molesting kids or something?

I mean, i understand if you drive to the basket a lot you are bound to get calls but dude settles for a lot of J's yet gets far more calls than Wade used to when Wade used to recklessly drive to the basket and get hammered.

Im not complaining at all. Look in the thread. Im not the one calling him out or talking about the contract.

I know hes a good player and will eventually get it together. If you look in the thread you'll see many people questioning the contract 3 games into the season, already. My only comments so far is that he looks sloppy and almost out of shape, even.

One thing i noticed is that he and WhiteSide dont work well together. He wants to drive but hassan stays inside the whole time and in the process also brings his man along who would then try to block Dragic at the rim. Sure you'd say thats when Hassan should roll to the basket but it hasnt always worked that way so far.
