It is weird that we have three pure PGs and not one of them can play a lick of on-ball defense.

Good!!!

I wish they would call this more often on players throughout the league.

And especially on Trae who too often leans on getting a whistle instead of making a basket...and who whines about calls all the friggin' time.
