Isn't defensive ranking all about reputation & whether the player "looks the part". It's why Westbrook's still being called a great defender despite contesting less 3 point shots than Deandre Jordan,

Harden for example is contesting more 3's than some elite defenders & holding them to low percentages yet is still labelled "lazy".
You got to get off Harden's dikk. Nobody calls Westbrook a good defender anymore. And I'll give Harden credit last year because his defense was a hell of a lot more consistent than year's past until later in the year when he started having more slip ups. The problem with Harden's defense hs the mental lapses he has and inconsistent effort at times. His D should be a hell of a lot better with CP3 to share the load this year.

Plus there's a huge difference between saying Harden's not a top 5 player because of his defense versus saying Melo ain't top 60 because of it.
