NBA All-Defensive 2014/2015 Teams

Toughts?

[NovU]

As expected.

[Mandich]

When was the last time the voters chose as deserving a defensive team as this one ?

One could argue Danny Green is more deserving than Butler, but I am really satisfied with the picks.

Hopefully they nail the All-NBA too.

[iamSamke]

Yeah, agree. Danny should be in one of the teams, great D player!
Rest is OK.

[Lamrock]

Only dubious selection is CP3 but you need guards. Still... two players from a mediocre defensive team on there?

[JAWSFreelao]

I kind of wish Anthony Davis had made 1st team, just saying.

[NovU]

Same here. DeAndre to me is not the best defensive big. Outside of defensive rebounding, can you tell me what he does exceptionally well that he stands out among his peers? I do not know. He's average at 1 on 1 defense, he's obviously not the best defensive anchor, and there are better blockers in this league.

But I don't have problem him earning this one as Tyson also did win DPOY in the past. I look at it as getting recognition for a stellar season.

[Andrew]

Solid selections. Green gets his due.

Bogut is getting a bonus next year for the selection

Bogut's selection is perhaps most important, since he triggers a bonus worth 15 percent of his nearly $12.973 million salary for this season, giving him approximately $1.946 million in extra pay. It also means his cap hit for next season jumps to $13.8 million instead of $12 million, since the bonus will fall in the category of a likely bonus.
