    What do you mean? i didn't put lebron on my defenders list? unless you were referring to the top 5 list where the original poster said they all play good defense. In that case, no he's not the best one on one defender although he plays a different style of d (passing lanes, blind side steals) and he's too good to be out of the top 5, they guys averaging above 30, 5 and 5, give him some cred.

    Why not? He's keeping up stats wise with a bad back, he's the second most talented behind Kobe, the best mentally and that pushes him in front of Kobe, just watch tonight, you'll see. And you have already seen what he does to Lebron...

    Now that you ask, I don't know exactly, I guess I'm getting annoyed by all the talk on why he isn't at fault for the Wolves decline, I don't think his do everything approach to the game is working at all, he's still too much of a perimeter player, and people want to trade Yao for him!

    for just this season and i guess last, steve nash is the best player in the nba. after amare went down i thought phoenix was shot but really they don't even miss him. if it was reversed and nash had been out all this time, phoenix wouldn't even be in the playoffs right now. he makes the sh!tty players look good and the good-great players(marion, amare) look unbelievable.

    kobe sure lacked in other areas last night. don't late your opninion of him the person affect your opninion of his game. he may not make his teamates better, but not close to your list of top players? that's silly.

    In what areas is he lacking? No, he doesn't make his teammates any better but based upon an ability/skill standpoint, what doesn't he do well?

    Phoenix is 7 games off last year's pace - and are barely .500 against the West; they been gettin' fat on the East.

    They miss him.

    Also;

    Parker is now in the discussion of top point guards. His FG% is insane for a guy 6'2" - and his assists are up, as well; 20 ppg, 6 assists - 55% + FG% - and it ain't all because of Duncan. Last night 33 & 13 w/o Timmy.

    After last night's crappy loss to the Lakers, I retract my statement.
