So you're using team defenses to tell me Sheed was an All-World defender when he's never gotten 1 defensive accolade. Makes 0 sense. If he was anchoring great defenses in Portland and historic defenses in Detroit he'd been recognized for it.

LMA is better than Rasheed Wallace. Y'all overrate based on what Rasheed was capable of doing but could/would never do consistently.

Sheed had the worst rep in the league. And we know alot of times those all defensive squads were popularity contests based on rep. Kobe was 10 time all defense...when really he probably deserved about half of that. And back in 05 They had Tayshaun Prince, Ben Wallace and Chauncey fukking Billups making the all defense team. While Sheed was left off. They tailed the votes and found that Sheed had the most votes in the league out of any player to ever not make an all defense team. The agenda was clear...how is Chauncey Billups getting on before Rasheed?

And Lamarcus definitely had a better career and will go down as the better player. All i'm saying is Sheed at his best gives you more than Lamarcus at his best because of his ability to dominate both sides. Damn shame we rarely saw him at his best.

I'm sorry but in all world defender should be able to get one selection in a decade of prime play rep or not. Kobe was getting selections off of his rep while still dealing with Flack from his allegations.

None of what Sheed can do matters when he does it for a quarter or 2 at a time. If you give me your best 15% of the time there's no point in comparing you to a positional peer who performed at All-Star levels for multiple seasons
