Rankin: Oh, every NBA coach has a player that makes him cringe defensively. Can't box out backside rebounding. Can't keep the ball in front. Getting beat backdoor. The key is creating a team defensive concept. Porter knows he has to be better. My point is if you're going to make up for the loss of Murray, then you got to figure out a way to get Porter at a level defensively that he's not a complete liability. This is 2021 NBA. Teams are so good offensively, you're not slowing teams down on a consistent basis. The key is to make them work for their shots. No easy ones. If Porter can just do that, that's an improvement.Oklahoma City Thunder
