<div class="quote_poster">Quoting the MDE:</div><div class="quote_post">Bowen is a good defender, but IMO the factor making him look better was back- line defense. Duncan and Robinson and heck, even Willis are hard guys to get around and shoot over, and also remember that Kobe's shoulder was hurt.. On the Valentine Day game (Lakers vs. Spurs) Kobe put up 40+ points on Bowen so I don't think Bowen is really as good at defending Kobe as people make him out to be. But that is not a discredit to his game; I mean, nowadays, superstars cannot be stopped individually, it must be a team effort.</div> someone named K-o-b-e has that kinda help as well... works both ways... but Bowen has proved he can defend in Miami before he came to San Antiono.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting JAXON:</div><div class="quote_post">I think that the lakers have the best Def with Oneal Malone Kobe and Glove they can guard any1 1on1.</div> Malone can't guard anyone one on one, even in the preseason, people have been blowing by him easily. Won't be long before he gets mad and throws those forearms around.
