By the On/Off numbers, no player on the Nets affected their defense negatively more than DJ this year. Which, considering their roster, is *really* saying something, lol.

He doesn't even really protect the rim the best. Claxton posts a higher block rate, and the team as a whole block a higher percentage of shots with DJ on the bench.

He's just not the guy he used to be. Like, unless they face a team with a slow big man who only plays at the rim, I don't know how DJ helps... and even then, I'd rather play Claxton.
