Agree that the D is terrible and needs to improve big time. Disagree that we need "an enforcer in the middle" this isn't 1984. That just isn't the way the game is played anymore. What we need are fundamentally sound perimeter defenders who can keep guys out of the lane. Dribble penetration causes defense to break down which leads to easy baskets, bad fouls and open three pointers. You still have to do everything else, (move your feet, close out on shooters, deal with ball screens appropriately, etc...), but if you can't keep their guards out of the lane, you better shoot 60% from the field.
