Grading defense only. Be sure to post your own list.

 

 

My list:

Dwight Howard

Andrew Bogut

Joakim Noah

Chuck Hayes

Kendrick Perkins

 

HM: Jermaine O'Neal, Joel Anthony, Brendan Haywood, Al Horford, Marcus Camby

 

I didn't include Oden or Przybilla because of their injuries this year.

In no particular order...

 

Dwight Howard

Chuck Hayes

Kendrick Perkins

Joakim Noah

Andrew Bogut

 

I want to put Serge Ibaka, but I need to see him play bigger minutes first. He's a pretty good defender, though.

Nah, you're right, actually. Fooled me. Now that I think about it, he does play most of his time at the four, replacing Green sometimes.

Isn't Hayes a power Forward? And same with Ibaka?

No for Hayes...

Yes for Ibaka...

I should've known about Ibaka, though. I watch enough Thunder games (every one of them). He plays under the rim quite a bit, and he does defend bigs from time to time, so I just tossed his name in the list. Most minutes come at the four, though.

In order:

1.) Kendrick Perkins

2.) Dwight Howard

3.) Andrew Bogut

4.) Nene

5.) Chuck Hayes

 

 

 

I would say Nene plays better defense than Noah, he's heavier, he's more physical, he's really a very good positional defender, has quick strong hands and defensive instincts. I believe no big man is better than him in the stealing department... but the knock on Nene is he doesn't rebound the ball like Noah. But defense wise, if I was to take a player to guard Howard, I'll take Nene over Noah.

he'll be a PF again when Yao returns.
