The problem is that it's not easy to find those types of players so they keep settling for Kleber. But he's not getting any younger and will continue to be injury-prone and inconsistent.
It’s really just the injury prone thing for me. They are piling up, and he is not quite the defender he used to be. That might have something to do with the injuries, too, but that is just a part of pro sports. Everyone always complains about his shooting, but that’s just a matter of rhythm. I knew he wasn’t going to shoot well coming off of this latest injury. He was never a good enough shooter to just roll back off the DL and pick up where he left off. What really sucks is that he’s not making those game-changing defensive plays the way he used to.
