Luka Doncic has been a much improved defender since he came back from Covid protocols but the Thunder hunted him tonight. It is simply inexcusable to give up that easy of a shot in that situation. There are many other factors which contributed to the loss but solid defense on that possession likely results in a win.

The defense has been slipping the last few games which is concerning.
Again though, the same issue since the great FA failure of 2019 is not replacing guys who just can't be relied on. DFS and Kleber had a combined 13 points between them in 43 minutes of play. I don't expect them to put up prime Jordan offensive numbers, but they can seemingly have games where you're not sure they will score AT ALL. Like, how can anyone be that bad offensively? And if the defense is slipping, then it makes it even worse.
Bullock has absolutely outplayed Dorian in the last 4-5 games. You'd be f'in nuts to extend DFS this summer at this point.
