Your logic is awful. Dragic has had a better season, so he's more deserving. Doesn't mean I don't think Dwight won't be better going forward if I'm starting a team. Doesn't mean I don't think a top 3 center is less valuable than the league's current most efficient shooting guard. It means he's had a more impressive year and deserves to be recognized for it.

And Boogie Cousins is better than Dwight.

No Dwight is much better defensively and is a better rebounder. Cousins scores 4 points more on 5 more shots. His PER his better bc of his usage rate. Dwight has a higher offensive rating and a higher defensive rating.

Dragic is only averaging 1.6 more points per game more than Howard and can't compete with what Dwight brings in terms of defense and rebounding.

So I don't see how you can make the argument that he deserves to be in over Dwight if we are picking and choosing and not taking position into account.

Dragic over Harden is a better argument.

And as for Cousins, answer me this.. how is his defense?

Dragic was putting up similar numbers to Lin when Linsanity was happening. He's always been capable of this.

How has his season been better? Because his team is doing better than expected? A slightly higher PER?
