(u gotta be more specific) ...........based on what (opp.fg., fewest points allowed, etc.) look at ur team , am not saying that phx is a bad team........... but cmon now suns & defense :no1: ............. how can they even chant D E F E N S E when we all know they don't have any.Does it mean that Dallas has one of the worst defense in the NBA, coz they let kobe scored 62 pts in 3 qtrs.
I would have to say the Raptors. They have quite a good offensive squad but, they need something more on the defensive end. Then they would be Playoff Contenders.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Zards @ Aug 10 2006, 06:45 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Hughes is not the 'GREAT' defender you think he is, trust me. I saw just about every Wizards game in '04-05 and all he did was play the the passing lanes. The guy said he would contain Gilbert Arenas from doing anything in the playoffs but then how come Gilbert averaged 34 ppg? Hughes is like a bigger version of AI on defense, he doesnt stick to his man at all, he just plays the passing lanes. Besides, Gooden will most likely leave Cleveland this off-season because of contract disputes. Z may be declining this upcoming season, and Snow is a decent defender. He's too slow and old to keep up with younger superstars.</div>All right, I believe you about Hughes. Gooden isn't gone (yet), Z isn't done, and Snow is actually quicker than people think. Hughes is still above average though.
Based on last season I would have to agree with the most of you as Toronto had one of the worst Ds in the league, we could stop anything it was horrible we just tried to outscore instead of outplay.Anyways whats wrong with living in Toronto? Its a great city to live in we got everything!!!you should actually visit before bashing it.
