Kobe won't win it because people think that he is an a-hole.

he's a perimeter player. so its not a surprise. it doesn't matter who kg's teammates are or who td's teammate are. put them in any situtation, and they are the best defender.

as for duiz, i guess you don't watch cp3 enough. he doesn't hurt his team while gambling for steals, because he doesn't gamble for steals like AI or Baron Davis.

he has quick hands and literally takes the ball away from you, while he's infront of a player. he has quick big hands.

the best two way player has to be exceptional on both ends. and kobe isn't on the level of td or kg on the defensive end.

kg has the opposing pf shot 13% below on average.


Opponents shoot a horrible percentage when Baron guards them, so I don't think he belongs as a 1-D Hughes-esque gambler.

Kobe no doubt.

Props to CP3, KG, and LBJ for great seasons though.
Greatest comment I've ever received.
