Marion was a good defensive player, but he was never an elite defender.

I agree. At least for a couple years, there were few who could match him on perimeter D other than guys like Bowen.

Right. The elite defenders could match him out on the perimeter. He was in the tier just below elite.

Marion at his peak was very good defensively. He wasn't in the same league as Kawhi, Bowen, Artest, etc. That's a big reason why he never made a single All-Defense team in his entire career.

Wasn't implying he was as good as Kawhi, just that Kawhi reminded me of a better version of him.

The fact that Shawn Marion never made a single All-Defensive Team is a travesty.

those were also the days where everyone on those teams were only allowed to make it for their single position. He was a SF, which was loaded with great defenders.

When should he have made it and who should he have made it over? You had Garnett/Bowen/Artest/Battier at F most of his career.


I still think the biggest traveshamockery in NBA awards is that Duncan never won DPOY.

Add in a Kawhi invite for Timmy to come over for HEB bacon cheddar cheese balls would be a great commercial script.

When I have a vote, I like to delegate it without hesitation

. Ridiculous.

You don't get any blame for your bad decisions if it isn't your opinion.

The inclusion of Davis, who appeared in 61 games as the anchor of the league's third-worst defense, is odd in its own right, but his final selection raised the most suspicion.

For the second season in a row, Worrell was the only voter to list Ariza on his ballot.

But according to the voice of the Rockets, Leonard's exclusion was born of blunder, not fanaticism.

"I had (Leonard) number one, but apparently it was left off," Worrell said via email.
By the time he supposedly realized his miscue, it was too late the vote was in.

"I just made a mistake," Worrell said,"I think he's one of top ten players in the league."

Like I wrote above..."for whatever reason" they screw up or show dumbassery, they shouldn't be voting.

Worrell is a total moron so it actually wouldn't really surprise me.

I see Wade is still trying to forget the 2014 Finals.
