    Default Im tired of these overhyped PGs that dont play a lick of defense

    curry
    rose
    kyrie
    wall
    etc

    ill hand it to chris paul.. i dont like him but he tries hard on D.. same with tony parker....

    but the ones i listed are pathetic. and their fans are pathetic. cant stand the majority of modern PGs that dont even try to lock up their man..

    best defensive PGs right now : rondo and westbrook

    walls defense is pretty good, westbrook defense is inconsistent at best, he has tools and effort(not all the time) but over aggro and make dumb mistakes. Tony parker's defense is ok at best.

    But ya, Curry Lillard Irving even rose some of their defense is disgusting. Rofl people keep blindly saying Lin's defense sucks. He is so much better than those "superstars".

    This league has 2 types of superstars. The REAL ones, Lebron Durant Duncan CP3, Who have real ability to impact both ends of the floor and have the energy to do so.

    The Fake one, only play offensive end of the floor, Irving Rose Curry, and Harden and more, some due to physical attributes some due to effort, some just not good enough to have energy to do more than offense.

    If you are a true fan the fake superstar can be pretty sickening at times, but there are only so few real ones, the league need star power to sell.

    And even though he's not a PG you can throw Harden in this mix as well. Steve Blake shiit all over him on Thursday

    Hard to lock up your man when you can't touch him. That's also the reason that PG's have become so unstoppable on offense in the modern NBA. These little PG's would get pushed around in the 90's. Now they get to any spot on the court that they want.

    Lol @ the idiots in here calling Curry a horrible defender. Dude is solid defensively, pay attention for once instead of just going on the "light skinned, average athlete shooter, he must suck on D" stereotype.

    Jrue Holiday is a great defender.

    This is probably why Irving is sucking hard right now.
    He actually has to try on defense now that Mike Brown is the coach, and he can't handle doing that. (how pathetic is that?)

    Wall doesn't belong on that list.

    The truth is...with the rules as they are now. It's absurdly easy for guards with a decent skillset to score a lot of points...especially if they don't try on defense

    Irving has been playing pretty good defense this season, that's partially why he's sucked so bad on offense so far.

    LeBron didn't start playing defense until the 2009 season. You do realize this right? Pierce dropped 50 and 40 on him a few times. Was lazy on ball defender, and average at best team defender. Rose, Wall, Paul, and Westbrook don't belong in the same sentence as those other guys in regards to defense.
