    Hickson and lillard are the two players that hurt us defensively. Hickson is the last line of defense, yet he is one of the worst defenders on this team. He can't alter or block shots consistently, so teams aren't afraid to drive in the paint. Lillard just doesn't have it yet. He doesn't have the ability to force his man in the strength of the defense.

    I think eventually lillard will get it, but I lost all hope from hickson. It's time to move on and find a shot blocking center. Rebounding is a plus, but I think shot intimidation is more important.

    We're a team with a rookie PG and no center. What would one expect?
