No way is Chauncey second team. And Larry Hughes? He's played 30 games this season. Gary Payton isn't getting it either.1stJ. KiddB. BowenR. ArtestT. DuncanB. Wallace2ndB. Knight/C. PaulG. WallaceS. Marion<strike>D. Howard</strike>, Andrei KirelenkoM. Camby

I like Brevin Knight over Gary Payton, but not over Billups. I wasn't really basing my picks over this year, I'm doing it overall.

This year he has no place on the list.
Over Larry Hughes and Gerald Wallace? They are both great defenders, better than Kobe. You are biased.
I'm doing my teams based on this year.First TeamC-Ben WallaceF-Andrei KirilenkoF-Bruce BowenG-Chauncey BillupsG-Jason KiddSecond TeamC-Alonzo MourningF-Ron ArtestF-Tayshaun PrinceG-Gerald WallaceG-Brevin KnightThird TeamC-DeSagana Diop F-Tim DuncanF-Elton BrandG-Andre Iguodala G-Kobe Bryant
Ben Wallace making first team all-defensive team is a joke, I have explained over a 1,000 times why he's an overrated defender. Tim Duncan on the third team with DeSagana Diop? Give me a break. Diop plays 18 minutes a game for gods sake.
My God, how many times do I have to say this? Larry Hughes is an OVERRATED defender. Believe me, I've seen his play with Washington for 3 years, while his offensive abilities have no limits, its his defense that should never stand out more than his offense. He's also not a guy that can 'slow down' opposing players. How could you compare him to Andre Iguodala?(if you dont know what I'm talking about, check the 'How would the Cavs do in the playoffs' thread) Iggy has a much stronger frame than Hughes, and that frame makes his oppenents have a hard time getting to the basket. Hughes is very skinny, and I cant name ONE performance where he has totally shut down a superstar. I'm sorry, but Hughes shouldn't be on that list. All he does is just play the passing lanes.

And you think Diop would get it over Marcus Camby? :HAHAHA:And no way Tim duncan doesn't make one of the first two teams.

I'd put Ron Artest down to 2nd considering he missed half the year....Is Andre Iguodala that good of a defender?

I watch a good chunk of Sixers games because their the local boys, but Andre Iguodala isn't the shutdown defender people imply he is.
