i'm thinking about it in terms of guarding today's offenses...so, given that:

pg - payton
sg - mike
sf - young rodman
PF - kg
C - drob

size, speed, mobility, rim protection, versatility...good luck scoring on that squad.

C: Dwight Howard
PF: Tim Duncan
SF: Scottie Pippen
SG: Michael Jordan
PG: Jason Kidd

It seems like ages ago, but Dwight as a help defender was getting those Magic teams 60 wins. And if you have an All-Star post player, well we'll switch Duncan on him. And rebounds are a part of defense and I got one of the best rebounding guards in Kidd to grab the board and already pushing the ball.

First Team
G Frazier
G Moncrief
F Pippen
F Garnett
C Russell

Second Team
G Payton
G Jordan
F James
F Duncan
C Hakeem

Artest was more intimidating and better one on one defender but his DPoY over Wallace in '04 was horrific. James is more versatile and his peak defensive seasons by the metrics are more dominant.

Word to Shawn Marion too travesty he never made an All-NBA Defensive Team. Kawhi is a beast too.

everything can be switched because you have 2 centers and 2 SGs you idiot

faq akeem played pf with ralph samson at C since u recently made a thread u should know.

There is no specific designation of pg or sg on those teams so i picked 2 guards. Plus jordan played pg in the 89 season and had 7 straight triple doubles :rudy:

Breh...we need 2nd Teams as well, because I was gonna use Mt. Mutombo as well, but I couldnt put him over Dream.


fukk It:

2nd Team:

Center: Dikembe Mutombo
Forward: Dennis Rodman
Forward: Ron Artest
Guard: Kobe Bryant
Guard: Jason Kidd
Kobe? Kobe over Sidney Moncrief who has a DPoY, Michael Cooper, Alvin Robertson, Jerry West, Jerry Sloan, Andre Iguodala? Honestly, Kobe isn't even as good as a prime Wade, Kobe is more in the back end of a defensive SG's list.
