    Lol. How does the defensive player of the year not make the first team all-defense?

    Grizzlies have 3 players: Conley, Gasol, Allen in the 1st/2nd team defenses. Impressive!

    yuck at these teams. Ibaka, Chandler don't deserve a selection this year, much less 1st teams.

    And i don't get the need to pick point guards when there are better defensive 2 guards. the category is "guard" yet it seems like the voters always pick a point guard for each team

    Where is Kobe? He is the best defensive player in the league.

    Paul and Ibaka are stat guys. Conley/Gasol/Duncan are better defenders.

    first question i had when looking at this list. also, i seriously think Asik should have been considered for this. although, with how terrible the Rockets overall defense is, i guess that is a hard sell ha
