    Yea but I think he lead the league in steals. It's really just a popularity team, pretty meaningless if you ask me.

    The best defense is a good offense is apparently the NBA's line of reasoning otherwise they would not load the Defensive Team with the league's leading scorers.

    I think Mike Jordan spoiled people by being the best offensive player in the league for a decade AND being a consistent top 5 defender. There is a reason he is the GOAT.

    kobe getting on the first team again like last year is a total total joke he can and has played great defense but never consistently.

    i would say ron's defense has slipped since his DPOY days but he is still a really good defender.

    the second team i feel is a better defensive team than the first team.


    i dont mind KG's selection that much he hasnt played much lately but he makes that celtic's defense go.


    I hope shane and ron see this and make it a point out there to show kobe who the better defender is

    Hey, no one told me that NBA All-Defensive first team is another name for "David Stern's cash cows that are going to make the NBA rich" team.

    Puh-lease. :rolleyes:

    This award is a sham.

    Lebron James is the 2nd best defender in the league?

    Give me a ****ing break.


    Thats what making 1 ridiculous block that makes Lebroncenter's #1 Lebronplay of the Lebronweek will do for you.

    You know there's something wrong with these teams when they look like the All-NBA teams.

    Things I noticed...

    -Derek Fisher got votes... LOL

    -Yao isn't second team (Duncan? Really?)

    -No Chris Andersen

    -JR Smith got votes

    -Chris Paul SUCKS at defending. Hello Chauncey Billups?

    Chris Paul? Are you kidding me? Oh, never mind, some experts only look at stats (such as steals). CP was completely exposed by Billups in the first round.

    I guess KG playing half a season still makes him more deserving than Yao Ming for 2nd team.
