these teams are a joke. it's the all NBA hype defensive team.

i would even say that none of their top 5 deserve to be there. LBJ ? Wade ? as top 5 defensor of the league ? :nope

LBJ has turned into a very good defender, hell he stayed in front of TP better than most have all season long last week.

Wade is also very good defensively.

This article is just the POV of the writer. It isn't the official results.

i agree that Wade is a good defender. and LBJ has really improved in this area, he did a great job against TP, that's true. but TOP 5 defenders ?

don't you find it funny that right now the best defensive players of the league according to the NBA (and its writers) are LBJ, Wade, KB, Howard, Garnett and CP3. The top 6 of the hype.

as if you have to be an offensive hype superstar to be considered as a top defensive player.

Dwight Howard is a beast defensively, and he's only gonna get better.

[anonoftheinternets]

lol @ chris paul being top 5 defender, all he does is camp in lanes, hes the worst on ball defender in the nba, ok maybe equal with nash.

[phxspurfan]

Where is the Kobe?

The thread title needs to be changed.

Edit: Thanks.

How the heck does Garnett get recognition for defending whether this is official or not? He rebounds pretty good, but that is it!

[poop]

Garnett so so overrated. jesus christ.

[ambchang]

cp3 is a joke, right? he's pretty much widely recognized as one of the worst.

[Austin_Toros]

Player who don't deserve it will always be named.

[Lady M]

cp3 is a joke, right? he's pretty much widely recognized as one of the worst.

CP3 is so strong than he never defend on TP

[spursfan1000]
