[QUOTE="TheFameProtector, post: 1587142, member: 517079"] Curbelo is also not a bad defender. Sure, he misses the occasional assignment. Who doesn't? Every advanced statistic tells the story of a good defender. He has a better DBPM and Defensive Rating than Ayo (and is better rated than Trent at the latter too). His Win Shares/40 is higher than Trent. He has a high steal rate, block rate, and rebounding rate for his position and size (again, better than Trent in all three). We get it, AC makes plenty of glaring mistakes that cause you -- everybody, really -- to shout at your TV. His turnover rate [I]is [/I]really high. He makes stupid plays at times. But it's also plainly obvious that the good outweighs the bad. He is an objective net benefit to this team right now. Acting like he is the reason we won't win a chip is just plain silly. [/QUOTE]
