-------------------------
Small-ish sample size? Yes. I just thought I'd throw them out there after his multiple 4th quarter daggers last night.
On a side note, does anyone think that a lineup of Jrue, Lou, Andre, Brand, Dalembert can be successful in the future? Jrue, Andre and Sam are all above average defenders. Brand in his older age is still a decent defender. Sam and Andre are elite rebounders for their positions.
I know that Lou is vastly undersized and an average-to-below average defender, but not every player on the floor has to be a terrific defender, especially if surrounded by good defenders, and placed in the right system. I think Lou has shown that he's a good enough scorer to earn some serious burn in the future. But you're not doing him any favors by employing a no-defense head coach and playing him with defenders and rebounders like Thad, Iverson, Speights, etc.
