I was just about to post something about Hibbert being snubbed. Even if the voters voted before Knicks - Pacers, Hibbert deserved to at least be named to the second team.
Lol I love all the conflicting beliefs! "Serge Ibaka isn't a good defender, just pads his blocks stat" Then people say "How did Gasol win DPOY with only 1.8 blocks?" lol
i think some of these coaches are simply trolling. Boozer got a vote last year. Asik shouldn't get any votes though, the competition at center is steep and i don't see a good argument to put Asik as a top 2 center on a ballot.
Seriously? Wow. It's hard to be put credence into these coaches voting sometimes...even agains the media.
how chandler got in but hibbert didn't is mind boggling. last time i checked the pacers was the best or 2nd best defensive team in the league this year.
i think if 2 guys get the same points, it should go to the guy with more first place votes. Its a shame they put 6 guys on the first team so gasol isnt left out of the all nba defensive teams. Especially since the media decided he is the dpoy. LOL
Pathetic, smh... Seriously, do these r****ded choices year after year tell us something about the quality of the coaches in the NBA? Or do they just not care and have their children fill out the forms or whatever? What sort of pride can a good defender have in making the team, if Kobe is the other guard? It's disgraceful.
I don't really think of Chris Paul as a defensive pg. He gets a lot of steals and he plays the passing lane but he can't gaurd anybody for ****.
I'd just give it to Perkins at every spot. His all around excellence on defense deserves the honor of being the only player to be voted to the all-defense first and second team as pg, sg, sf, pf, and c.
