Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives...defensive_team/ Take a look!
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! Why are there 6 guys on the All-Defensive 1st team? Wallace, Bowen, Kirilenko, Artest, Bryant, and Kidd. That's 6. wtf? Also Marion should have made the 2nd team over KG.

I know stats dont matter but you cant not pick a guy who averaged over 2 blocks and lead the league in steals per game.He holds his opponents to 6 points below there scoring average.ROBBED.

The only other center I would consider over Camby is Zo. And of course Wallace is gunna get robbed when the other forwards recieving consideration are KG and Prince (and Marion). They are the bigger names so they will always win. I'm not sayin I agree with that, but just stating the facts.
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! Too bad Mourning plays behind Shaq and tore his calf muscle, or he would have easily made it, maybe even first team.
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! I dont think that source is correct, like CelticBalla said there were 6 players. I dont think Kobe shoudlve been there this year, there were 6, and it wasnt mentioned on NBA.com. so i believe that not to be 100% accurate.
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! Marion should have made 2nd team at least. The guy is often guarding people a sh*tload bigger than him.

Bowen got robbed of the DPOY
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! Wow I dont know how Kobe made 1st team. Half the time he didnt put effort into defense. Marion was robbed.
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! I'd rather believe that source then a 13 year old, I think Bryant did a great defensive job this year.But I agree Marion was robbed, and deserved it more than Bryant.
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! It's obvious why Kobe made it. The media felt the uproar of a majority of fans that Nash robbed Kobe/Lebron of the MVP. Kobe has a reputation as a guy who can lock down his man, if he needs to. So they put him on there. They couldn't put Lebron on because it would be too ridiculous, with Kobe's it's not out of this world, but with Lebron it would be fishy.
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! That's right.......3 Pistons on NBA first and second teams and almost a fourth, Rasheed.

He also is one of the hardest working defensive players. How can you say he didn't put any effort in it?
Re: The NBA Defensive teams announced! Every Kobe game I saw he didn't even guard the opposing teams best player. In the playoffs he guarded Raja Bell for God's sake! When he wants, he can be great, but he doesn't do it enough to merite him geting this over a guy like Chauncey Billups, who puts up a consistent effort
