Hi,
I just read that AB wasn't included in 1st or 2nd defense team and some Celtics expressed their displeasure.
I agree with them.
What do you think?

looks like all the complaining teams did about Bradley worked. It seemed like they were complaining to ref's about the holding and pushing Bradley did. RIGHT! What a joke

I've gone on record as feeling that a player who depends on athleticism more than technique for his defense (which is my impression of Avery) has a very difficult time maintaining the defensive level on which he made his reputation.  Although he certainly continues to make outstanding defensive plays, I believe their number is on the wane, and he's not nearly the open court defensive terror he was a few years ago.  Once within the arc, his lack of height keeps him from being a lock down defender, especially on the baseline.  A good defender?  Yes.  But an elite defender?  Maybe not.

The 4 guards were Chris Paul, Tony Allen, John Wall and Jimmy Butler, I have no problem with those 4 selections, AB's defense is still very good, hopefully he can still improve on it. I can't believe Draymond Green got first team and 2nd most votes, I know hes got a physical and gritty style both ends, but I saw Sully post up on him easily....wish they would have given him more shots on Green that game. Is Green really a better defender than Anthony Davis? I'd take Davis over Green easily. I think if Sully and Green play one on one, Sully wins easily.
