DoDo on the rise: Who's better than RoCo?

[vfromlmf]

Are you just posting random stats or at least trying to understand what they mean?

Of course I know what they mean. The numbers suggest DFS was one highest impact defensive small forwards in the NBA. You can learn more about Matchup Based Defense here --> https://greekgodofstats.com/2019/09/28/m...d-defense/

You're trying to dismiss these numbers because DFS was forced to carry a huge load? And it's a bad thing that he put up league leading advanced defensive metrics because, er, well because he had to? That makes ZERO sense. 

The best role playing defenders in the league are given the most difficult assignments. They carry heaviest load. 

And by the way, before you try to make it sound like I'm saying something I'm not. I'm not saying DoDo is the third or fourth best defending SF in the league. If I could choose one defender to stop one shot in crunch time surely I'd take a half dozen or more guys before even thinking of DoDo (Kawhi, George, Lebron) But this advanced metric sure puts him among the game's elite and most valuable defenders. Certainly more valuable than a so-called "hustle player".

Oh, and how about one more random stat while I'm at it.
