All-Defensive teams

[mdc]

1st team:
Camby
Garnett
Duncan
Bowen
Bryant

2nd team:
Howard
Battier
Prince
Bell
Paul

I'm thinking Battier should consider himself very unlucky to miss out on 1st team and Raja Bell is a terrible call in the 2nd team, he's been rubbish this year.

Josh Smith is a little unlucky!

 

[jerry springer]

No ron this year.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Chandler ahead of Howard for me.

everything else seems fine.

I agree with you guys. Bell is lucky, Josh Smith unlucky. I don't think Bowen has been that good this year also, but the guard postion is pretty lacking in the defensive department.

Bell is rubbish though, I would go as far as saying Ronnie Brewer deserves a spot over him easily. Derek Fisher is another guy i would pick ahead of Bell (seeings as there is no sg/pg battle with the guard spots)

 

[Thewlis Dish]

Smith's actual defensive ability is very overrated.

 

[Borgsta]

Why is Smith unlucky?? Horrible defender. Takes heaps of chances and gets the stats.

I don't think Bowen has been that good this year also, but the guard postion is pretty lacking in the defensive department.

CP3??? The guy averaged nearly 3 steals a game.......surely he'd bump Bowen out??

 

[Osmodiar]

Yeah I know what you mean Popes. Cp3 averaged alot of steals but Bowen's defense is all he does. I think they picked him purely on his reputation (and not the dirty dog act reputation)

 

[WakeUpPies]

Bowen and Bryant ahead of Battier? seriously?

 

[PHX]

Bowen and Bryant ahead of Battier? seriously?

You want Battier in a PG or SG spot.

 

[super_phaser]

Chris Paul ahead of Deron.... wow


That is wrong on so many levels. Paul gets nearly 3 steals a game cos he cheats on defense. Deron is a straight up man-on-man defender.


Watch when they match up on each other - Paul has never come close to containing Deron, while Deron abuses Pauls leaky defense like a red headed step child.

 

[WakeUpPies]

You want Battier in a PG or SG spot.

in a SG spot, since Battier plays on the most damaging player, which usually is a SG

and your logic is flawed, Duncan playing SF
