Defensive Concerns and Playoff Weaknesses of NBA Teams

The key to success for the team will be their defense, especially with the loss of players like Drew and Holliday. The new coach, Griffin, will be fine, but the team needs to maintain their defensive buy-in. Dame is a weak point defensively and other teams will try to exploit that. In the playoffs, teams will target your weaknesses and you have to either address them or find a way to work around them. Miami beat Milwaukee by attacking their best player, and other teams will try to do the same. The Milwaukee staff is aware of this and will work on it. Ultimately, a player like Kemba Walker became the target in the playoffs and it cost his team the finals.
