Is chicago a good perimeter defensive team?

Depends on the team they play. If its against athletic bigs that shoot then not rly. If its penetrating guards that like to dish then yeah

If ur asking ab tonight specifically then u should've just asked if they can defend Orlando on the perimeter. In which case the answer is yes for the most part. Boozer is anemic on d but asik and Gibson can cover Ryan Anderson in spurts. On switches and zones Noah is terrible at coming out on the perimeter and over commits when he does, usually to late as well. If Orlando drops threes then they will cover first half easily and perhaps the final score. If rose isn't hitting his j or getting body blocked by Howard then Chicago may lose outright unless rose elects to become a full time facilitator in which case Chicago can win by double digits

Guess not. Orlando 6/7 from deep already
