Is there a snarling dog defensive PG out there who can be had for cheap?

    Any vet will do, I just want to realize the dream of putting an ace defender on the court with Battier, Artest, Hayes & Mutumbo if he comes back to form the IRON MAIDEN defense.

    The Jazz signed him. Not really snarling. But solid defender.

    We can get some Jacque Vaughn. :eek:

    Kirk Hinrich is a decent defender, but won't come cheap.

    I want a PG that can shoot and take advantage of all the free shots they will be getting.

    If you want to go big you can try to pry away Thabo Sefolosha, 6'6" guy who can play the 1/2/3, from the Bulls. I doubt they let him go for nothing big though.

    While I wouldn't call him "snarling," Hinrich is actually considered a very good defender at PG.

    Darrel Armstrong?

    but he's more of a pester-you, flopping type of defender

    i was just about to mention him even though he wont be going anywhere b/c his situation with his daughter but he really can play defensive and WILL get veteran calls from the refs. and hes just as clutch as anyone comes
