You say he is a bad defender with a below average defensive iq, that's moronic. He's one of our best defenders, often the point man for our press, and we're a good defensive team, so...yeah.

You say he can't beat anyone off the dribble, also patently false. Probably the only passable part of Levi's offensive game is his ball handling. If anything, he should be more aggressive off the dribble because the ability is there, and as you point out, he's not a very good shooter. He is however pretty good finishing around the basket and even dropping some floaters in the lane, which he should do more of.

He can't guard anyone in the post? That's great, we've never asked him to. Maybe you're thinking of Cooper

I can think of many games we would have lost without Levi in the last two years. Would you have wanted Lacey on the point for our press? Would you want Cooper bringing the ball up the floor when they deny Releford the ball or Eblen was in the game? No sane person would. Not anybody who understands basketball anyway. About that ..

Levi is, by far, our best on ball defender and literally the only guy on the entire roster who can hit a mid range jumper. He's not what I would call a great player, but he contributes a lot to this team.
