All Defensive Teams Announced

Avery Bradley deserves more recognition in this area, IMO.

But I'm a Boston homer... what does everyone else think?

Whoever voted for IT needs to have their pass revoked. Whoever voted Austin Rivers too, needs to at least have a time out.

I don't know how Danny Green makes it ahead of Jimmy Butler or Avery Bradley.

Also Anthony Davis is a really overrated defender. Just putting that out there. But I would have said the same if DAJ was on the 2nd team too. I think Whiteside is a better defender than the other two.

Bradley, Butler and Klay Thompson should've been placed before Danny Green.

Bradley, Butler and Klay Thompson should've been placed before Danny Green.

Klay has been just out two years in a row.

Not sure about CP3 as a first teamed either. Not anymore. Here is how I would vote for guards:

1st: Beverly and Bradley
2nd: Klay and CP3 or Allen

Some voters just seem to mail this one in. Tony Allen is an excellent defender, but would he be up there had he not earned his rep 5 years ago? I do not think he is better than Klay or Bradley.

I also think Marcus Smart should get more love. I think he isn't every bit as good as CP3 and Allen.

That should say Smart is as good.

I really hate autocorrect.

All defense team during the regular season seems kinda funny nowadays... Lebron way down the list.

Lillard belongs on that list too.

I think center is hardest to evaluate in today's game. It has typically gone to the best rim protector, but now guarding in space is just as important.

Paul over Klay and Bradley?

Lmfao

I face palm daily when I see the shit I post after autocorrect hijacks a few words in every sentence.

 

[Hambombs]

Giannis!!!

 

[Bolts]

Garrett Temple gets no votes but Isaiah Thomas and Austin Rivers do? Man some of these voters are really dumb.

 

[jon2tanman]

The NBA plays defense? LOL

The NBA plays defense? LOL

Yep. Some better than others of course, but there are some great defenders out there, both teams and individuals. It is a lot harder when you are not allowed to grab and hold.

 

[knowyourenemy]

Nice to see Covington get some recognition.

 

[Great Dayne]

WTF Paul can't play defense at that high of a level. I was stunned that neither Klay or Bradley made it. The voters need to be shot.

 

[shopson67]

Isaiah Thomas lol. He's basically the worst defender in the league. That should be an automatic revocation of voting privileges.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Andre Roberson gonna get 10 mil per plus.

Griz want Allen to take the minimum.

All due respect to Allen, who is going to want him? Golden State exposed him when they left him completely uncovered and he couldn't hit an open shot.
