JJ Redick is a terriable defender

[chochem]

i'm watching magic vs celtics game, JJ is such a poor defender, celtics is exploiting that mismatch. i'm glad Jazz didn't draft this guy..

.....he's like any other undersized white guy....the only thing he can do defensively is deny his man the ball. Once he gets the ball he's going to need help more than likely! But he is a good ball denier defender!

...by the way, the Jazz could surely use his outside shooting! But maybe not at his current contract price.

the Jazz could surely use his outside shooting!

not against the Lakers, he might hit some 3s, but will force Jazz to double teaming on Kobe every single time, Kobe will eat him alive one on one, he wont be able to guard Shannon Brown neither, Raja Bells wil be at least able to slow down Kobe and guard Shannon Brown.

....frankly, JJ had a very good defensive game today. Between Nate and Ray Allen they shot a combined 5 for 28. He was covering one or the other!
