Okoro is excellent on defense; the problem he runs into is when he gets matched up on a Giannis or KD type (but everyone has problems guarding them). He doesn't have consistent enough offense, which is the main issue with him. Teams give him the Ben Simmons treatment and play off of him because he doesn't score a lot.

Right, Bickerstaff should know though he needs his defense in this series.

He’s made some questionable moves in terms of guarding Brunson.

People forget -- Randle got hurt in Cleveland, maybe that's the reason why he's not performing like people think he should.

Levert in this series needs to come off the bench, he has no business starting. Okoro needs to start just because he matches up better physically with Brunson. It'll make Allen and Mobley's job a lot easier getting rebounds, instead of having them wandering around the lane on a Brunson drive.
