disagree here. A player that is sieve defensively will be exploited by great teams to the extent that he hurts his team. Secondly, open shots are great for the other four players, but that is what the defense wants (i.e. "make someone else beat you")


The Great Defender affects the 8 feet around him; the Great Offensive player affects the entire court at any time.

I'd much rather have a rebounder that they try to pound and attack, than the guy they can ignore one the offensive end.

Give me Ben Wallace in his prime over Kevin Love. No doubt.

A Great Defender is not exclusively a rim protector.
