    FYI:

    basketballreference.com is very creditible.

    Who do you think should be taken out of the list?

    Individual defensive rating is not a particularly meaningful stat. The most you can really take from it is "the Rockets defend well when Harden and Capela are on the floor" which should be pretty self-evident to anyone who's watched a Rockets game at all this year, or even just to anyone who's glanced at the team defensive rankings before.

    KAT would get the ball in the post against Harden, and I'd be like RIP KAT, Rockets just won the possession.

    Meanwhile, the idiots on the TNT broadcast would be all: "HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM, Reggie KAT (no comma) has the ball down low against Harden, BBQ chicken time."

    Rubio/gobert top 10...
    Not afraid of Rubio, but gobert intimidates our team and stops them from going to the rim.. gonna be tonight with him healthy

    Why does your first link go to a motorcycle forum?

    Disagree. Harden has no problems with Gobert. Never has.
