Cause he can't guard 1-5. Guarding on a switch is not the same as saying he can guard 1-5. If you say a player can guard 1-5. Then you're saying he can guard any position on the court straight up. That's what that statement means. Being able to guard on a switch is not the same. There are very few NBA players that can guard 1-5. WCS will not be one of them.



Can guard 1-5 =/= up straight guarding for 40 minutes. It means you can get a bad switch and not be a liability.

Was a bad choice of words? Either way, it's extremely impressive.

Either way I'm done as well.

I did not make this statement.

can guard 1-5 = can straight up guard for a whole possession. Which WCS could not do.

BUMP because the Wisconsin results actually made this discussion relevant again.

Ok, so after Wisconsin mangled Kentucky's switch strategy by dominating mismatches in the second half, we still on this talking point? What is the consensus?
